<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mrweaseluv, post: 1884188, member: 40340&quot;]Actualy, I said &quot;I would not buy trade dollars unslabbed&quot; and the reason for that is just what you mention wcoins, I lack the knowledge and experience myself to spot a fake trade dollar. Other coins that I have considerably more knowledge and experience with I would not hesitate to buy raw. As for the &quot;fake&quot; slabbed coins you mention, at least there if you have bought a &quot;real&quot; slab (as these are now commonly counterfeited as well as the coins) it is &quot;insured&quot; by the TPG (pcgs and ngc anyway) for the &quot;value&quot; of the coin so even if you do make a mistake and get a fake you haven&#039;t lost money (or not much) with a raw purchase you&#039;re SOL unless you bought from a trustable dealer that would take it back (as is only proper in my book) Personaly I prefer my coins raw but I often buy slabbed as a safety net if I don&#039;t have the experience needed to judge myself.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
