<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 1340218, member: 5233&quot;]I collect graded coins too...but I don&#039;t collect slabs, I collect coins.&nbsp; A slabbed Pf issue and a slabbed Pf from a 25th anniversary set are identical coins.&nbsp; The only difference is the piece of paper in the slab.&nbsp; They will only have big premiums as long as the dust is in the air.&nbsp; Have you ever heard the phrase &quot;buy the coin not the slab?&quot;&nbsp; Once the dust settles...the premium for those coins will be negligible.</p><p><br /></p><p>Look at the 2006 20th anniversary set.&nbsp; It contained 3 coins...a BU, proof, and a reverse proof.&nbsp; Just like for this set, if you wanted them slabbed with special tags you had to have them sent unopened to the TPG and they would slab the whole set.&nbsp; Back then, the set was hugely popular and sold out very quickly.&nbsp; If you use your logic and guess that 50% of the sets were slabbed in this manner...then 125,000 slabbed sets exist.&nbsp; Those special slabbed 125K BU and proof coins (which are identical to the normal issues other than the slab)...today 5 years later do not carry a significant premium over regular slabbed issues.&nbsp; If there is no premium at 125,000...then at 50,000 there won&#039;t be either.&nbsp; The vast majority of collectors collect coins...not slabs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
