<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 3236702, member: 71723&quot;]Keep your sales pitch active. I ain’t buying. Seen too much. By the way, a CLEAR majority of my non-modern slabs are cents. One 1909 VDB (non-S), is graded NGC MS65RD, which it was when I bought it off of the old Teletrade. Now, it wouldn’t make RB, and it’s growing cancer spots. Another is a 1913 Type 1 nickel at NGC MS65 that now looks like crap. Another Teletrade coin. Another is a 1942 proof cent that was loaded with reds and blues when I got it. Full dull brown now.</p><p><br /></p><p>I see more at every show I go to, also. Scan tables for the “Cheap slabs” box. Stuffed to the gills with turned toned coins with lofty grades but the coins look like garbage. Saw them at Philly and Pittsburgh/Monroeville and Baltimore just since August. They’re increasing exponentially. And they’re marked 50% off and they sit unsold.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you have the “secret sauce” that prevents it, please share.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, I do have some VERY modern coins slabbed - anything that would otherwise be Dansco fodder but there is no slot. Think, for one example, reverse proofs. That allows the whole set to be books and a box.</p><p><br /></p><p>I literally get less changed coins from my Dansco albums than from my 1990’s slabs. My 2009 Lincoln cent proofs have turned, kind of. They have the color of fine Kentucky bourbon.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
