<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KoinJester, post: 1683654, member: 29128&quot;]The way you asked your question, my answer would be as follows:</p><p><br /></p><p>No the coin would still be worth the $10 the price of slabbing the coin does not increase the value. It just increased your cost. </p><p><br /></p><p>In reality if a coin is worth $100 its worth $100 weather its slabbed or raw. Granted there are quite a few people that have the mentality of &quot;it&#039;s raw for a reason&quot;. With that said it does affect the price as people will pay more for a slab than raw for multiple reasons, weather it be not comfortable with their grading skills, easier resale, or just that they prefer slabbed coins among many other reasons.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are many old time collections out there along with many that would rather have raw coins so they buy them raw or crack them out for their album or cabinet or just 2x2&#039;s.</p><p><br /></p><p>Again that slab or cost of slabbing should not increase the value of the coin, if you want a lower value coin slabbed buy it slabbed otherwise you will be to deep into it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
