[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1447340, member: 75105"]Inexpensive coins, you do not worry if the slabs get scratched. But if you had say, a $10,000 coin ( no I don't have one), and if the slab accidentally got scratched, you would have a hard time photographing it. Not only that, but it might bug you when you go to look it. So..if someone spends the money to get a $10,000 coin graded, then why don't they make a more scratch proof slab. Better yet, why don't they use a thin layer of "Gorilla Glass" a glass made for smartphones, tablets, etc that is VERY scratch resistant. Gorilla glass can be somewhat expensive, I'm guessing it would cost about $75-$100 to use a slab made from it. I know that would cost a lot, but it would be worth it for very expensive coins.[/QUOTE]
