<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stldanceartist, post: 7761863, member: 13307&quot;]When my family asked me to sell my grandmother&#039;s collection a while back, we came up with the idea (well, I did mostly) of holding back enough silver dollars for every living member of the family to get one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, because I have a couple cousins who are, shall we say, less than stellar...we decided it would be safer/better to have the coins graded with my grandparents&#039; names on them.&nbsp; We figured it would be harder for them to sell/pawn them if my grandparents&#039; names were on the slabs.&nbsp; (I don&#039;t think they would, but they might.&nbsp; Or one of their wives <i>definitely</i> might.)</p><p><br /></p><p>I called ANACS and was able to get my grandparents&#039; names on the slabs for a small extra fee.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>What I&#039;m saying is that I could do the same with my own collection - come up with a fancy name for it, pay the appropriate fee, and voila - instant provenance.&nbsp; <i>Not that it really means anything for some regular person like me.</i>&nbsp; Now, someone rich and famous - different story.&nbsp; But each one of us here could technically come up with our collection/hoard names and get them on slabs...for the correct fee.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
