<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 848617, member: 4552&quot;]Guess I really miss out on this subject since when I purchase any coin in a slab, as soon as I get home out comes the coin. That plastic ends up in the blue thing out there in the alley for recycling of plastics. At least there is one good thing about a TPGS, gives the plastic recyclers in my area something to do. I never look at the slab for a star, stamp, special notice, congradulations sticker, etc. I do sometimes look to see if it says do not swallow, taste or bite this item. I&#039;ve never sent a coin for grading, don&#039;t even know anyone that has either except dealers at coin shows. </p><p>I suppose I miss all that stuff about who, what, where, why a TPGS is charging for this or that. Somehow I just collect coins for fun. Old rumor is that this is a fun hobby. I don&#039;t even know how to grade coins well so one more reason to ignor all that TPGS stuff. If a coin looks OK to me, in an Album it goes. I have no slabs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
