[QUOTE="savitale, post: 3093676, member: 95284"]"Early gold" to me means Capped Bust era. But I assume you are talking about Liberties and Indians vs modern bullion and commemoratives. There are two reasons for dealers to keep US coins raw: 1. It's not worth it to slab, or 2. It would (or has before) Details grade. Slabbing most coins costs $30-60 ea. depending on how many you are shipping. Many generic gold coins are selling for less than that premium above melt, so the slab isn't worth it.
