<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1485587, member: 26302&quot;]Did you read my post #17 as well then Rick? The OP is a new collector, and I was simply asking him WHY he wished to collect slabbed 70&#039;s. WHY was the slab important, WHY was the 70 important. </p><p><br /></p><p>You may feel by me asking such questions I am &quot;intimidating&quot; collectors. I feel that all of the collectors who talk about &quot;raw&quot; coins are slandering unslabbed coins and making collectors of unslabbed coins to feel inferior.</p><p><br /></p><p>I for one am &quot;sick&quot; of those who get mad at me simply asking why someone wants to spend money on the slab. How is that not a fair question? Was I belittling anyone who does? Was I saying anything in this thread AGAINST slabs? Heck, in post #17 I even alluded to the fact a slab can protect a coin from toning, (just not always, like any coin holder).</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: Sorry if I sounded overly grumpy Rick, but I simply do not see how me asking the OP questions was abusive to slab collectors, or even was making fun of them. I was simply trying to see why he had chosen the path he did, and if it was for a reason or just because &quot;that is the way you have to buy coins&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
