[QUOTE="rbm86, post: 42297, member: 854"]If they are in non-Big 4 slabs, you might be better off submitting them raw. It eliminates any possibility of a bias. The only slabs I would ever try to cross are top-tier slabs, because if they do not cross, they are still likely worth more in the current slab than what they would be worth in a slab (at a lower grade) you are trying to cross into. Here's an example: Say you have a 1971-S NGC PR69 UCAM Lincoln Cent. You want to cross to PCGS (PR69 DCAM). It does not cross. If you had cracked out the coin, it likely would grade PR68 DCAM at PCGS, which is worth less than the NGC PR69 UCAM. Now, if you are trying to cross a PCI PR 69 DCAM and you crack it out and get a PCGS PR68 DCAM, you are better off. If you get PCGS PR66 CAM, you likely break even. If you get lower than that, they you are way off on your assessment as to whether the coin will cross. Good Luck!! :D[/QUOTE]
