<p>[QUOTE="Bmagold, post: 3697524, member: 105484"]I am a kinda new to the whole slabbing idea but I recognize the importance of the practice as it makes the coins easier to sell and some coins deserve nice presentation as well as solidifying it's value or possibly increasing its value but I thought that these grading companies were able to identify and grade most everything sent to them because that was their job and that is what we pay them to do. For example I have an 1889-D German 5 pf with just 2 varieties with the 2nd listed low 9 witch I have they couldn't make the call. An 1835 British India 1-rupee and did not state which of the 5 it was. Mine was F incused on truncation. Or make the call on 1965 British Churchill crown with 2 varieties listed and I am absolutely certain I have both well the 2nd is a specimen wouldn't make the call. Yet I was still charged for the work I feel incomplete. I also saw a pretty valuable U S early gold coin slabbed where the coin was set crooked as much as 3 o' clock and this coin was 25-30 g's it was a lg date variety a pretty rare coin[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
