Message:: [QUOTE="coinfisher91, post: 266941, member: 9914"]first off if you are going to invest into slab coins stick with PCGS and NGC those are the top two resepected coin grading companies and as for the slabs going away they wont. they are here to stay as long as there is a repitable company to grade them like NGC or PCGS the older generation of coin collectors dont seem to like slabed coins and as bad as this sounds they are dieing off and the newer generation is taking over and they have grown up around slabs, the MS-70s are not really a joke either NGC certifies that a coin is MS-70 if there is no nicks or scratches visable at 5X maginification and of course the coin has origional surfaces and so on. i would suggest that slabed coins would be a better alternative to raw coins, as long as you stay away for the off compnies aka SGS Hallmark and any other crack out company. also i forgot to menchen earlier ANACS and ICG are decent companies I wouldnt send my coins to either of them especally since ANACS has had problems with counterfit holders, their grading is decent but not near as good as NGC or PCGS. If you are a member on the ANA you can send your coins to them and to sent your coins to PCGS you have to be a member and that cost $200 but you get 8 free submisions with that. hope this helps for whomever reads it. message me with questions:smile Casey T.[/QUOTE]
