Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/28/2015 7:25 pm Fascinating to see, for example, how many LWC from 1938-58 are out there in top quality slabs in 65 or better that sell for far less than the slab cost. Some big bets on potential upgrades that went south! THe TPGs have the hobby by the neck. Report this Post to the Staff

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 06/29/2015 1:08 pm Also new & inexperienced collectors who would shotgun coins to the tpgs to learn what grades they will come back as. I was one of those before ccf ... but mine were primarily big silver and some gold unless I knew it was a key Edited by Cascade 06/29/2015 1:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Bertensgrad Pillar of the Community United States 1192 Posts	Posted 06/30/2015 12:48 am I have to admit I bought a congress 1989 half on ebay recently for $10. Though to be fair it did get a 69 and they were Probally hunting a 70. It's my first slabbed coin got it since it was free shipping and the exact amount for my gift card.

Chute72 Pillar of the Community United States 1314 Posts	Posted 07/04/2015 02:09 am I'm thinking about doing that to about a dozen coins I got from my Grandfather. Most aren't worth much, but I've had them for 50 years, and imagine that if I gave them raw to the nieces and nephews, their provenance would be lost. Report this Post to the Staff
