<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 155836, member: 4373&quot;]Disagree with some points here. Unless there is a major revolution in the design of slabs, I don&#039;t see a reason why I should slab my coins any time soon. A coin IS a 3D object, not two 2d images stuck together. If that&#039;s the case, you might as well take photos and shove them in your pc for enjoyment purposes. </p><p><br /></p><p>Recently I found an extremely interesting coin which could be worth a lot more than I expected:</p><p><br /></p><p>Russia 1720 Ruble</p><p><img src="http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/910894.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now if you actually CARED to look at the edge:</p><p><img src="http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/3790/1720edge4ad.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The edge reads as <b>1719</b>!</p><p><br /></p><p>If this coin was in a slab, I don&#039;t think I would have made such discovery anytime.</p><p><br /></p><p>However for the higher end of rarer coins, I do agree that some should be slabbed, especially coins that are highly prone to counterfeits. Even so, the major TPGs have made mistakes in the past. I do agree with all of the points GDJMSP have made though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
