<p>[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 671304, member: 19250"]They gave me two options one as just genuine in a ngc holder the other a semi graded coin from ncs....I chose the one with a grade. However I don't care for slabs I hate the feel and the look...ok I do understand why they are slabed for the grading....but to me it's not the same as holding a raw coin. Protection yes grading ok...but as for the look ulgy! I could never understand why a coin could not be slabed no matter what the issue with a grade or remarks of cleanning etc.... I have had several coins returned to me in body bags for cleanning that were not so. The coins were taken from gov. mint rolls never shipped out from the FRB to other banks for circulation. I have always believed that TPG were bias as to those of us who are just collectors and those who are in it for a business! I have seen and heard of business getting back 80% MS or PF 70's and the rest in 69 grades. Yes I am a member of NGC and PCGS but only now send coins that I want to resell for a profit...not the ones I want to hold for my personal collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
