<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KSorbo, post: 1812594, member: 56370&quot;]I am on a low budget but I still stick with PCGS and NGC when buying online, because on Ebay even coins under $50 are easy to find slabbed, so why even consider coins that are raw?&nbsp; Cleaning is what worries me most as I see a lot of cleaned coins in &quot;details&quot; holders where the cleaning isn&#039;t readily obvious.&nbsp; If a coin passes at PCGS or NGC I can be reasonably confident that its surfaces are acceptable to the market.&nbsp; I have some coins that are raw and in lower tier slabs that I am not sure about which makes it harder to enjoy the coins.&nbsp; A coin may seem like a good deal for its supposed grade, but if it turns out to be cleaned the value just drops like a rock.&nbsp; This is easy to see when comparing completed auction results on Ebay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
