<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 1362902, member: 24091&quot;]Well, I guess that&#039;s one way of looking at it.&nbsp; I too have benefited from the same buy/slab/sell routine.&nbsp; I&#039;m not so sure that works as well as it once did though.&nbsp; Especially with grading standards of the TPG getting so loose that many of the grades on newer slabs are almost meaningless.&nbsp; I bought a 1914-d Indian $5 gold piece a few years ago raw as an MS60.&nbsp; Sent it to NGC and it came back as MS63 even though the chief&#039;s cheek had what looked like a tomahawk gash across it.&nbsp; Still, I was able to unload it for $1500 almost instantly.&nbsp; As time goes on, I suspect there will be fewer and fewer collectors out there willing (read: stupid enough) to rely strictly on the holder grade when determining the value of the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
