[QUOTE="BUncirculated, post: 1245127, member: 29581"]In the long run, you are paying the TPGs for their opinion on grade and nothing more. While some hold the TPGs as being 100% on grade, others disagree. I for one, refuse to pay fees for someone's opinion on grade, and to get my coins in a particular slab from either NGC or PCGS. I do, and have, buy coins that have been slabbed; however, their slab life comes to an end in my collection. I don't, nor have I ever, collect coins for investment value but for the collecting hobby, as that is what it is to me. Also, the only difference between a 69 and 70 is the fractional grade only. Nothing more. Oh to return to the days of simplified grading without the numbers. Just my opinion. TPS welcome to CT, but this thread is 3 years old ;)[/QUOTE]
