How many graded coins did you actually get graded yourself?

    well I got 2-300 slabbed coins at this point.. how many have I had slabbed myself? 15-20ish all together.. as mentioned above, if I want slabbed/graded I buy slabbed graded.. though occasionaly I do pick up a raw or 2 and have them graded when i can't find an already graded/slabbed example I like/can afford :D

    Sometimes I will self-slab a coin, but those are often lower-grade coins that you can tell yourself. I don't really believe in grading an AU coin as MS66 (trust me, look up SGS and you will see it). I do like grading them myself, though.

    Several hundred at both pcgs and ngc. I buy a lot graded. I buy a lot raw. And have graded. I've sent quite a lot to cac as well. Most of that was pre 2018 when I was much more active with coins. I probably have close to 50 coins to send in though as well

    Zero, since I don't plan on ever selling any of my coins, it would be a waste of time and money to have them graded.

    One positive thing about having coins professionally graded, sometimes you get educational surprises.
