[QUOTE="Mat, post: 2550758, member: 21445"]There is some passionate collectors here. And even though I post on 2 other boards, this one is still my favorite. The biggest issue I have with slabbing is the high cost to slab a coin each & not being able to open/close it easily so you can handle it when you feel like. I think it should be a free option. I also dislike seeing junk ancients that cost less then $10 being slabbed period. Same could be said with "low ball" U.S. coins. Some folks just have too much money to spend. Not a top favorite but only posted once since I have owned it & still enjoy. They're common, but nice & affordable bronzes!
