[QUOTE="NumisNinja, post: 3111989, member: 94566"]I recently picked up some cheap pcgs slabbed nickels and dimes. Literally worth $25 according to Redbook. Not sure why they got slabbed to begin with, but somebody else paid for that for whatever reason, maybe hoping for FB or FS grades. Anyhow, I saw some raw coins at the local shop of the same grade going for the same price I paid or thereabouts. My question is, if they are that cheap, wouldn't the holder itself add some premium to a slabbed coin compared to it's raw counterpart? Like wouldn't you rather pay $20 for a slabbed coin rather than take a chance and pay only $17 on a raw coin that might be cleaned or perhaps a lower grade? Not big money we're talking here, but just on principle I'm wondering if a holder adds intrinsic value.[/QUOTE]
