<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Old Silver, post: 185010, member: 4686&quot;]I agree in part.&nbsp; For investment pieces and for verification/authentication it sometimes becomes necessary and wise to submit coins to a professional TPG.&nbsp; IMHO, it is not good to suggest to a new collector to send common, circulating coins to a TPG and pay the slabbing fees on a coin that will probably not be worth much over face.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you figure, cost per coin + s/h + Slabbing fees&nbsp; you would probably end up spending about 10x or more&nbsp; what each coin is actually worth.&nbsp; If protection is the main concern then this money would be much better spent on proof or uncirculated sets that offer protection straight from the mint.&nbsp; You then get the<u> whole years run </u>of coins for not much more than 1 coin would cost to submit to a TPG.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
