<p>[QUOTE="green18, post: 24865491, member: 10103"]Gettin' in on da gravy train, ain't we? Competition is good, demand for grading is good, and folks buying into this melee is nuts. Dem prices ain't cheep and it's got collectors thinking that in order for them to have a collection worthy indeed, they need to get all of their coins entombed in plastic. I see the question asked quite often (especially by younger collectors).....'Should I get my coin graded'? They've got the notion that what they have ain't worth nothing unless it's packaged in that magical encasement of plastic. Don't get me wrong, certain coins do require slabbing, if only to ensure their legitimacy and condition per value but the hobby seems to be leaning toward (and egged on) by the TPG's peddling their services.</p><p><br /></p><p>Rant over. Carry on.........[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
