<p>[QUOTE=&quot;griv, post: 271415, member: 8952&quot;]I wonder if the biggest reason for opposition to slabs is really that experienced collector/dealers don&#039;t like someone second guessing their grading skills. I also saw a post that suggested that if you can&#039;t grade your own coins you should stay away from coins expensive enough to be slabbed. I&#039;m hoping it was meant to be facetious.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Slabbed coins make it much safer to buy and sell coins on line to a wider variety of collectors. It seems like the industry would appreciate more collectors in the market but the old-timers almost act like they don&#039;t want anyone else collecting.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I am very supportive of slabbed <b><i>modern</i></b> US coins but I don&#039;t trust any grading service except PCGS. NGC is okay but in my <b><i>opinion</i></b> PCGS is the best. Many here will disagree but like I said, it&#039;s my opinion and we all have one. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
