<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 2344870, member: 26302"]...and I DO truly appreciate authentication in slabs. Back when they introduced the things, I was happy. I thought they would mainly be used to prove a coin is authentic. Heck, I tell anyone who will listen to never buy certain coins like Trade dollars or certain key dates in anything other than a slab unless you are VERY familiar with the series. I LOVE the authentication aspect of slabs, but 99% of collectors concentrate on the grade. If they made slabs that authenticated coins, and maybe documented if a coin was cleaned or not, I would be a huge fan. Alternatively, if they actually graded to a Third Party standard, and WERE accountable to a standard grading system, I would have no issues at all.</p><p><br /></p><p>See, I agree with YOU on many things as well. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
