Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 515204, member: 112"]A matter of opinion I guess. A lot of us are idiots and most of us don't know how to grade. So if the shoe fits ............ The slabs don't cost anything unless you are the one submitting the coin. Buy coins already slabbed and you never have to worry about it. Well, that goes back to the idiots part. A valid point. Take care of them, handle them properly and that won't happen. Blaming the slab for our own carelessness is kinda silly don't ya think ? Again opinion, but then I wouldn't want to hold a rare object for fear of possibly harming it. If it is rare it deserves the protection. I've seen it a lot. But they are right are lot more often than they are wrong. Collectors and many dealers on the other hand are wrong a lot more often than they are right. If anyone believes that then they are need of additional education. Again, it's not the slabs fault that people believe bad information. It's the people's fault. In some cases, it's already true. But then who was it that decided to have such coins slabbed in the first place. Refer to the idiots part again.  Well, not so much opinion on my part - rather the reality of the situation. And yes it was fun too <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
