<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 195467, member: 112&quot;]There are a couple of reasons why you see inexepensive coins ( say under $100 ) slabbed. One of them is because many collectors want their collections to match - they don&#039;t want to mix some raw and some slabbed - they want them all the same. So they pay the money to slab them. </p><p><br /></p><p>But what I think the most common reason is - is that the person submitting the coin &quot;thinks&quot; the coin will grade higher than it actually did. In other words they are convinced the coin is a 65 ( or higher ) so they submit it - it comes back a 63. If they had thought the coin was a 63 before they sent it in and paid the fees - they never would have sent it in the first place. </p><p><br /></p><p>So - we end up with a lot of inexpensive coins slabbed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
