<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alegandron, post: 2405688, member: 51347&quot;]I collected US coins (Odd-Denominations, Flying Eagles, Trade Dollars, CWT&#039;s, HTT&#039;s,&nbsp; - the more eclectlic US) ever since I was 9 yo.&nbsp; I left the hobby for about a 10 year period, selling off a majority of the collection... kids, career, extensive business travel, moving, etc.&nbsp; However, I started back in the 90&#039;s and was COMPLETELY turned off by the SLABATION CRAZE that swept through the industry. It was one MASSIVE marketing campaign in my thoughts.&nbsp; I was turned off to the hobby, but began my journey into Ancients... It directly tied into my love of Ancient Histories, as well as to the areas of the World that I have been blessed to have traveled.&nbsp; I have no interest in Slabs, and crack open every one that I happen to capture... (However, I do not pay any Slab &quot;Premium&quot; in any purchase.)&nbsp; I view slabbing as a plastics-disease on coins, akin to bronze disease on AE&#039;s...&nbsp; Just my thoughts, <i>but as a PURCHASER / CONSUMER of the hobby... they are my convictions... </i> Folks need vote with their $ and not buy them...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
