<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RaceBannon, post: 1319411, member: 25357&quot;]&quot;Why would anyone buy a slabbed Silver Eagle?&quot; Good question, given that it&#039;s a bullion coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>The answer lies in the MS70 craze, which is a really good way for dealers or anyone enterprising enough to have bullion coins slabbed, to get people to over pay for a bullion coin. Some people want &quot;the best&quot; and will pay a premium to have that coin in a slab that says MS70.</p><p><br /></p><p>In my opinion it&#039;s kind of silly for a coin that was never intended to circulate anyways. Save your money and buy a raw example, in all likelyhood you won&#039;t be able to tell the difference between the raw coin and the MS70 coin that someone paid three times the bullion melt value for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
