<p>[QUOTE=&quot;asciibaron, post: 267271, member: 8566&quot;]more and more world coins are finding their way into slabs - this is being done to open that market to the deep pockets of US collectors who don&#039;t trust un-slabbed grades.&nbsp; i know several world dealers who are sending coins to NGC and once in slabs, they sell quickly.&nbsp; as more world coins are slabbed, the market will demand more coins in slabs.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>there will not be a slab crash - the point of slabs is to retain value - the price for a given coin will always remain in flux, but since the grade never changes on the slab, the value of that coin will always be a known number.&nbsp; this instant market valuation allows the coin to be used in a more liquid manner thus appearing more attractive to both the casual collector and investor.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>being able to cash out at a known value will bring in more money to the market overall.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>-steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
