<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2999640, member: 112&quot;]Yeah me too. And I collected coins that way for decades. Problem is, those original cases and/or packaging are often, maybe even usually, one of the biggest contributing factors there is to the eventual destruction of the coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>So what do ya want to do ? Preserve the coins as best you can ?

No, I&#039;ve never had a coin slabbed in my life, (though I have owned many that were). Never needed to, I could grade them better than they could, and in some cases authenticate them better than they could. And Air-Tites protect a coin just as well as any slab. So for me, paying somebody to slab a coin was a waste of money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
