<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1904690, member: 26302&quot;]I am with most here. I don&#039;t care if someone who does not wish to educate themselves wants to buy a slabbed ancient. It&#039;s their right. I have cracked many a slab, keep one just for fun, (wrong year, wrong emperor, wrong mint, its kind of funny), but admit I still have the Ostrogothic gold I bought in the slab. I still waffle on it, since its a derivative coin, something not so easily attributed. One of these days I still may crack it out, (my major problem with it being the grade, wth does CHAU+ even mean for ancients?), but have not yet.</p><p><br /></p><p>For collector coins, I say be a collector. Being a collector entails education and knowledge, and if you get that there simply is no need for a slab, or to have NGC be able to drain away money out of our hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
