<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 1407836, member: 13650&quot;]I can&#039;t believe the opposition to slabs.&nbsp;&nbsp; How can additional authentication and a professional third party&#039;s opinion be negative?&nbsp; On top of this, you&#039;re not supposed to &quot;handle&quot; high quality coins anyway, unless you want to put more oils and dirt on the coin.&nbsp;&nbsp; If a non-collector gets a hold of your collection, it&#039;s more likely that they will clean loose coins out of slabs.&nbsp;&nbsp; Not to mention that somebody spent good money on the service.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; IMO, there are coins that may not need to be in slabs.&nbsp; There are some that are common enough in high grades that they don&#039;t need to be in slabs while others are worn and low value enough that it probably doesn&#039;t matter either.&nbsp; &nbsp; The rest I would think it would be insane to ever crack them out.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; It only serves to hurt the value because people are afraid of buying fakes.&nbsp; &nbsp; I guess not everybody has gotten the memo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
