Play it well and you can win, but play foolishly and you can very easily bury yourself. The fact is that the VAST majority of perfectly collectible coins out there have absolutely no business being in plastic, and this includes many already residing there. For a coin, any coin, to be worthy of submission the act of doing so must add something of value to the coin that at least equals the cost of doing so. This can be anything from increased liquidity to independently verified authenticity and everything in between, but also means that a fairly small percentage of coins are truly worthy.</p><p><br /></p><p>Contrary to what many folks seem to think, the TPGs are not the collector&#039;s friend, but are for profit businesses more than happy to take your money while offering nothing in return. Just to be clear, this isn&#039;t to say they&#039;re a bad thing (not at all) but only that a wise approach to them is paramount. Again, if you play the game wisely submitting can be a very good thing, but only if played wisely. Knowledge is key, and submitting isn&#039;t something for the uninitiated.</p><p><br /></p><p>With the coin in question, had you submitted it, you would also be permanently buried in it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
