<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 1360419, member: 3011&quot;]I disagree.&nbsp; There are reasons to slab common dates.&nbsp; First of all, slabbing lends authority to a coin being MS instead of AU.&nbsp; Someday my kids will be selling the coin and this minimizes some shady dealer from undervaluing the coin on that account.&nbsp; Second, a common date is still a large dollar purchase and authenticating the coin in an age of counterfeiting is worth something.&nbsp; Third, many gold buyers won&#039;t buy raw gold, so slabbing increases the number of potential buyers.&nbsp; Fourth, many buyers pay more for slabbed gold over raw.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
