[QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 849284, member: 18157"]Most of my coins are raw at the moment and NGC multicoin holders don't cost any more than normal holders. So, the real question is "[B]to grade or not to grade[/B]". I know others may disagree, but I like Third Party Grading because... 1. Protects the coins 2. Guarantees their authenticity 3. Makes them easier to move about, display, and store 4. Improves the appearance and "gavitas" of the display 5. Makes them easier to evaluate for insurance purposes 6. Makes them more easily recoverable if stolen (assuming still in holders) 6. Makes them more easily marketable...if/when the time comes I predict the overall grading fees would be somewhere around $5000. That seems like a lot of money, but when you consider the collection will likely be worth over $100,000 when it's complete (2016)...and go up from there, I think an initial 5% investment to achieve the results listed above is a reasonable investment.[/QUOTE]
