[QUOTE="ronnie58, post: 3039488, member: 90698"]I think you mean slabbing coins is expensive. Agreed. All true. A new business venture would have to include these costs. Which is why it would be great if the TPGs would consider going to such a method instead of slabbing older circulated coins in the first place. I won't hold my breath, but you have to wonder if they plan on doing the same thing forever, even as advanced computer technology makes an evolution possible. With a separate venture, the cost of photographic processing and storage would be minimal, because it is digital, not actual photos. The coin storage is another question. I have read here on CT that the jury is still out regarding the very long term viability of TPG slabs. So the climate control of the room itself would be important for both liberated and slabbed stock, hence not an additional cost. There really is no End Customer.
