[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 7809153, member: 115909"]Let me start off by saying I [I]know [/I]that the majority of ancient coin collectors here hate slabs and refuse to slab their coins. I know and understand that you like to see them without thick plastic in the way and more importantly that you like to hold them and feel history in your hands. Now having said that: What about high grade ancient coins? I am wondering if that is a different situation since it’s so much easier to turn an MS coin into an AU coin with an accidental drop, scratch, etc., It just seems to me like MS coins would make sense to slab to keep them safe from accidents or environmental damage or even ugly toning. What do you guys think?[/QUOTE]
