Speaking of slabed coins, I just bought my first one: A proof nebraska quarter graded PR-69 by PCGS!

Be sure to check the Cert Verification page before buying. That's to ensure you don't have a fake slag.

Many (if not most) counterfeit slabs will now have a certification number that will come back to the correct issue in the stated grade. What may still tip you off to the forgery is if the lookup shows that the coin is supposed to be part of a registry set or has been recently sold in an auction.

Much good information has been given ...now I will add my 2 cents worth. Since 1976 is you birth year get a Silver Bi-Centenial graded at least MS69 you deserve that! Now as far as buying slabs they at least guarantee they are what they say they are especially when buying gold. As far as breaking them out...hmmmm that is one's personal decision...myself I don't but I only collect slabbed coins in my Commemorative collection.
