<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 766075, member: 19165&quot;]I would never crack a coin out of a major TPG slab. Even if I disagreed with the grade and wanted to resubmit, I would resub in the holder. I am afraid of damaging the coin, but more importantly the slab offers a considerable amount of protection. Its also much easier to resell in the slab. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have cracked third world holders - NNC and Numistrust being two of the most common. Most of these were foreign coins that I a.) saw in hand before buying b.) bought for a price corresponding to the grade I thought they were, not the grade on the slab and c.) purchased with the intention of putting in 2x2s to match the rest of the particular set they were for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
