<p>[QUOTE="Tom B, post: 1567184, member: 11854"]The likely reason for this is that most classic silver that is not worth all that much (under $200 or so) is nearly as liquid raw as it is in a holder. Therefore, coins that are easier to grade, such as circulated pieces, do not benefit as much from certification. Additionally, it is more difficult to recover or justify the sunken cost of certification since the price of a nice raw vs. a nice certified classic coin might be minimal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
