[QUOTE="spock1k, post: 1673148, member: 7043"]since i have been away and some of you have been asking about me including the ever forgetting GD the comparison is very similar and it scares me I have retired from coin collecting. I spent most of my life collecting and studying coins, and I still study coins every single day. As for slabbed coins, yes, I have bought thousands of them. And no, I never cracked any out. But over the course of my life I also bought thousands of raw coins, some of them rather expensive by most standards. I was able to do this, without risk, because of three things. 1 - my knowledge of coins, and 2 - because of 1 very simple rule that I always followed. It's actually the same rule that everyone should follow but few do. That is to only buy coins from people who know coins and who you know and trust. If you do that, you'll never have to worry if the coin is slabbed or raw. 3. there is a capped grandpa on the forum when in doubt ask him sometimes you wont understand what he says but dont let that bother you no matter how irritated he gets keep asking till you finally understand what he is saying, its not our fault that English has changed since the dawn of time is it? :D if you really want to stop worrying sell the first coin that you think is an expensive buy the knowledge you get along with the profit and loss will set you free from your worries one way or another.[/QUOTE]
