[QUOTE="jlblonde, post: 1303102, member: 32000"]My advice, and it is my opinion alone probably, is only have coins graded and slabbed if they are worth, say $100 or more and only if your profit margin is more than what it costs to have it graded and slabbed. Example: $50 Your purchase of a coin $25~$35 for grading (just guessing at this price) $110 Krause listing $90 Current eBay, Amazon, Online trading value All of which, you're still in the black. I would go for it! But...only if you are going to keep this coin for investment purposes or for trade. If the coin is really really rare or in hot demand and you wish to sell it asap, then that would be another reason for having it graded and slabbed. Otherwise save your money! Many more coins can be bought with the money you save. Joe[/QUOTE]
