<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paul M., post: 2544475, member: 73165&quot;]I buy coins, not plastic.&nbsp; If there&#039;s a nice coin available that I want, at a price I&#039;m ok paying, I don&#039;t care if it&#039;s raw or in a PCGS, NGC, ANACS, ICG, or whatever holder.&nbsp; If the coin is worth a premium, I pay the premium.&nbsp; If it&#039;s not, I don&#039;t.&nbsp; The one exception would be sample or unusual slabs, in which case I would be mostly buying the plastic, but the coin is typically nothing special anyway.</p><p><br /></p><p>This does effectively mean that I end up not buying NGC slabbed ancients, because the markup is usually pretty absurd.&nbsp; Their grading on ancients is also pretty stupid.&nbsp; I mean, really, who uses AU as a grade for ancient coins?&nbsp; That doesn&#039;t even mean anything.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
