<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bonedigger, post: 325571, member: 4367&quot;]Sorry, just got back from taking the dogs to the vet.&nbsp; Rabies shots...&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Back to coins.&nbsp; It all depends.&nbsp; If the coin didn&#039;t fit into the slots of the BCDHDC folder it would be instantaneously cracked out.&nbsp; However, if it was (say a small older ANACS slab) moderate in size and not too far off of where I THINK the coin actually is &#039;grade wise &amp; condition&#039; I might leave it in.&nbsp; FYI, I cracked out a Jules Revier 1810 BHD because the grade on the slab was AU-58 and I thought it was closer to 45/50, those coins are horribly over-graded.&nbsp; Besides the NGC slab didn&#039;t fit into the page pockets.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t hate slabs as an authenticating service.&nbsp; I think some coins (*my 1815/12) Bust Half Dollar is protected in the slab from individuals who do actually want to handle the coin and take a look.&nbsp; Plus it adds that needed 2nd opinion on rare pieces, etc.&nbsp; Grade wise, HAHAHAHAHA, they (slabs) are useless.&nbsp; It will be a cold day in hell before I send in a coin I know is real just to get it graded...</p><p><br /></p><p>Take Care</p><p>Ben[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
