<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 257627, member: 4552"]I hate slabs. I have purchased many coins that are slabbed and break them out for my collections. I use the Whitman Classic Albums and have 97 of them. Most are complete. Most dealers at coin shows know I will not pay extra for a slabbed coin and occationally will actually break them out for me right there. </p><p>As to resale value, I'm way to old to worry about selling coins. As to an inheritance. Well I tried to instruct my son on the value of coins. Same with his wife. At my age not many relatives to worry about. So why should I worry about what happens to my collection in the future. I have several old cars, many other collections and what happens to them all, happens to them. </p><p>Not to very long ago I had a friend that collected guns. He had many, many, many that were worth thousands of dollars each. Also, many, many parts, ammunition, etc. He passed away. His relatives came in, took everything, sold it to someome for a few thousand dollars for the lot. They probably blew hundreds of thousands of dollars. So why worry about your coin collection with relatives????????[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
