<p>[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2446381, member: 76194"]Slabs are a bit of a slippery slope. Over the last few years I've seen more threads about whether you would pay extra for a slab with a limited edition tag, and about slab protectors to protect the slabs themselves, than I care to count. Yes...some people think an NGC limited edition tag is worth paying extra for. Look, Wyatt Earp apparently signed it and endorsed it more than 86 years after his death. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie46" alt=":facepalm:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]510712[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>And unfortunately, this is now a reality too: Slab protectors!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]510713[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I've even seen threads where people discussing how they wrap their slabs in plastic protectors, and then put it in a vacuum sealed bag which they then wrap inside another bag, and then place in a dark place to keep their slabs safe.</p><p><br /></p><p>The day I have to wrap my coins in 4 or 5 layers of plastic and stick them in a dark corner to keep them safe, I'm done collecting.

[ATTACH=full]510713[/ATTACH] I've even seen threads where people discussing how they wrap their slabs in plastic protectors, and then put it in a vacuum sealed bag which they then wrap inside another bag, and then place in a dark place to keep their slabs safe.
