<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2229380, member: 26302&quot;]Lol, depends on what you are talking about. If you include Chinese ancients, then maybe I am around 8-10,000 coins. I wouldn&#039;t want to get my US or world coins involved. I am pretty sure there are not a lot left of us with US collections totally unslabbed. Even if I were a slab kind of a guy, many of my coins would not increase one iota by slabbing anyway.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Honestly, a piece of paper to a CNG auction, or a respected dealer is as good or better than a slab IMHO. I simply love the owl I just got with a Bowers and Ruddy tag. The coin has history, the tag has interesting history, its a two-fer. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I think many ancient collectors are like me, a NGC slab is like a David Vagi tag. Crack the slab, keep the tag in the flip. Only problem being NGC made Mr Vagi use US grading standards. To be fair, Mr Vagi was a respected dealer before he started making plastic tombs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
