<p>[QUOTE="JeffsRealm, post: 2519760, member: 81515"]Ok that makes sense. I was beginning to wonder if that was the only reason. I kind of like my coin collecting better. I look at and appreciate the coin for the coin and not the number grade. I mean I do understand the grading, and from reading and looking at other peoples pictures and things I do understand where a more visual appealing coin, has a higher grade even I can see that and seeing the difference from good to very fine is obvious to me. But the taking a brand new in the mint coin and slabbing it wasn't making sense to me since everything is pretty much a very high grade. Doing it just to put a number on it because people value that slab and number more. To me that is destroying part of the coin. However if there are people that value it that way then that makes sense of why to do it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
