[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 213733, member: 705"]Well you didn't put the choice that I wanted.....yes there are times when coins should be slabbed....and then there are times when they shouldn't.....I have slabbed coins that have little or no value....and I slab coins that aren't suspected forgeries. In most cases this is the rule I go by: Any coin worth over $100 can be a good one to be slabbed. Any RED Cent Any Proof Franklin ANY Key date Also if I have a coin that I think is undergraded then I more than likley will send it in. I have some coins at NGC right now---a 1942/1 Dime and a 1926-S Buff Nickel. The Buff should come back as VF+....the dime is a hard one to guess as it has been cleaned but has also re-toned....it will be a 50/50 chance weather they slab it or not. The reason I sent the coin in is because I got it for a good price and if it comes back BB'ed then I can still sell it and break even or if it comes back slabbed I have a much more $$$ coin.
