[QUOTE="NPCoin, post: 395986, member: 5629"]SEGS slabs crack just as easily as PCGS and NGC slabs do, so I don't have a problem with them. But, if you are looking into using the said coins as investment tools, then go with the greater of the market scams and send them to PCGS. If they're for your own personal enjoyment and collection, then SEGS is a fairly reputable company, and their slabs are pretty good. I would personally send to ANACS if I were going to use third party company to fixate my coins in a storage device, as I like the ANACS slabs. But, as you can probably tell, I do not use third party storage services. I prefer my coins raw, and my storage units able to be reopened for upgrading, so I use snap-lock slabs. Although a bit more on the cynical side with respect to the TPGs, I do hope the information helps you a little in your decision. Irregardless of the reason, having your coin sonic sealed just adds to the cost of each coin. Something to think about. TPGs are pretty much a market service for market players. If you truly want to keep enjoying your coins, I would use all that extra money buying books to learn more about what I'm buying, and buy better looking (and thus more expensive) specimens of my coins. Good luck![/QUOTE]
