[QUOTE="EdS, post: 1413318, member: 36938"]Thanks for all the input! I'll probably leave them raw then. I have a ton of the older to ancient stuff... all raw. I've read (lurked here) and hunted, just never posted much. My collecting rule is "unique"... I like to collect the weird & unusual.. so to me, hehe.. the regular tribute penny wouldn't do. I just came back from vacation where I had hit some nice coin shops.. and bought several nice, raw coins. It got me to thinking about possibly starting to slab some of the nicer pieces in the collection. My honest thinking wasn't so much me.. but for the wife & a future buyer if something happens to me, and the wife & kids decide to liquidate the collection. I'm not old.. but I'm not young anymore... hehe... and a several large chests of raw, old coins would be a hard mystery to the wife. My thoughts were, if slabbed, she'd know what was there... making it easier for her to deal with them. Maybe instead I will start to catalog them for her... all the info & such... and just leave them raw.[/QUOTE]
