<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 2083494, member: 19065&quot;]These slabs are really just novelties. The companies explored them as an option, but they were not popular and didn&#039;t sustain a following. Sure they pass the cost on to you, it&#039;s called making a profit from a service and product they&#039;ve created. The multi-coin holders are problematic, as are thick slabs used for medals and oversized slabs used for larger pieces like Swiss medals or modern 5 oz. silver coins because they present just as much storage issues as does OGP and original cases such things come in from their mints.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s one of these novelty slabs I have, with two coins (US and France) silver commemorative coins from the 1986 Statue of Liberty centennial. They&#039;re just given &quot;GEM BU&quot; grades.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy46/kcttck/US%20Coins%20-%20Silver%20Commemoratives/1986_LLC_Fr_US_Silver_O.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy46/kcttck/US%20Coins%20-%20Silver%20Commemoratives/1986_LLC_Fr_US_Silver_R.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
