<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TopcatCoin, post: 833811, member: 22746&quot;]I understand what you are saying about the pros of slabbing some modern coins.&nbsp; However, my big concern (especially with bullion coins) is that one will never be able to recoup that premium in the future.&nbsp; I buy raw bullion ASEs as close to spot (and as close to spotless) as I can.&nbsp; I love the design.&nbsp; I am betting that over time these will appreciate as silver hopefully increases in value.&nbsp; If not, then I have not lost that much.&nbsp; Now, if I sink hundreds or even thousands into slabbed bullion MS70s with first strike or first day of issue designations there is no guarantee that anyone will ever want them other than for the bullion value down the road.&nbsp; I am a firm believer that people should collect/acquire whatever makes them happy and/or comfortable but slabbed modern bullion is way too expensive and risky for me.&nbsp; For other modern series like proof Presidential or Sac dollars, State Quarters, etc. most of these are 69 or 70 anyway so I like mine right in their original mint packaging.&nbsp;&nbsp; TC[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
