<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 1612401, member: 4626&quot;]Well not saying there&#039;s anything wrong with buying or selling a slabbed coin.&nbsp; I think it&#039;s the TPG ripping people off, not the people selling slabbed coins.&nbsp; Just be aware that the slab offers no guarantee of authenticity, so coveat emptor and all that.&nbsp; I know inexperienced collectors prefer the assurance TPGs offer that at least the coin is guaranteed to be authentic; so collectors should keep in mind this does NOT apply to ancient coins, therefore a slab is not a substitute for educating yourself enough about the coins to be able to determine what is real and what is not.&nbsp; Don&#039;t shell out a serious amount of money until you have the confidence that you can determine its authenticity, because the TPGs are not offering any kind of guarantee.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
