[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1384972, member: 2972"]I select coins for grading that have the highest chance of increasing in value when slabbed. Said a bit differently, it makes no sense (to me) to submit a $5 wheatie. It costs $20 to grade, about the same or more to ship, and the result is a coin and slab that are worth $25 -- a losing investment. Change that tune to a coin that raw is worth $1000 dollars, but slabbed is worth $2000, then, of course, the investment in slabbing makes sense. Hope this helps....Mike[/QUOTE]
