<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 324659, member: 3011&quot;]While theTPGs aren&#039;t perfect, I believe the hobby is better off with them than without them.&nbsp; The upside is authentication and an independent third party professional opinion as to grade.&nbsp; The downside is that it makes people lazy.&nbsp; I also believe it is partly responsible for coins being as high priced as they are.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think there would be such huge price differences between some MS64 and MS65 coins if not for the label on the slab making people overconfident about the grade and value.&nbsp; Another thing I like is that I think it will give my family a better chance of selling the coins for a fair price after I&#039;m gone.&nbsp; It&#039;s very difficult for a non-collector to sell raw coins and not get ripped off.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
