<p>[QUOTE="howboutatrade, post: 1111205, member: 10387"]Not a fan of coins in a slab....so none of the services. I have purchased, used, and sold coins both in and out of a slab. Much prefer the raw method...then again, I do not collect anything considered "high end". Biggest uses for TPG....protection and for those who will inherit the collection. I know for certain I have coins worth a chunk of change in a PCGS graded slab, that raw will bring quite a lot less. However, I like the consistent look across my collection and I will give up the $$ for the enjoyment of the coins (key dates, extra nice specimens) sitting along side the normal stuff. But that is me...to each his own. I have seen enough to realize the inconsistency in a slab...the pay for a grade slab efforts that appear to go on....and the difficulty of photographing a coin in a slab....since I buy a lot of coins online, pictures, patience, and price are much better than any TPG.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
