<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3704022, member: 19463&quot;]It is just plain wrong to lump all the coins in slabs in one group.&nbsp; There are TPG&#039;s that do a good job and offer an opinion worth paying for.&nbsp; There are coins in slabs which almost seem randomly assigned ID.&nbsp; It is a lot like eBay.&nbsp; There is nothing wrong with buying from a good dealer who happens to use eBay as a platform.&nbsp; eBay does not police sellers.&nbsp; Being in a slab adds no value to a coin.&nbsp; Being in an intact NGC slab with numbers matching the online image might be worth something.&nbsp; I only own one coin in plastic.&nbsp; If National Numismatic Certification can&#039;t tell a Constantius from a Constantine I&#039;m not sure I put much faith in their opinion of grade or authenticity and certainly won&#039;t pay any extra for their services.
