basebal21 Bedrock of the Community 13014 Posts	Posted 10/08/2018 7:40 pm Quote: So if you go to sell it there will be no guessing what grade to list it as Label is completely irrelevant on a cracked out coin when it comes to selling. You keep it because you want to or your own record, makes no difference selling Report this Post to the Staff
atchisonbj Valued Member United States 293 Posts	Posted 11/07/2018 7:54 pm Good call to crack the coin. Fact is Fine-12 or even Very Fine-20 is not much more money than a Very Good-10 meaning that the slab will NOT trade at a bonus over a raw coin. Slabs like this are either a mistake when sent off or they were included in a large lot as veto bait to get other coins graded at the target grade by the submitter. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/07/2018 8:30 pm Disagree. Major TPG slab will always trade at a premium over a raw coin. Report this Post to the Staff

It's a $60 coin (in the NGC VG10 holder). Similar raw pieces also sell for $60 on ebay daily. For reference here's the OP's coin ($53 delivered): https://www.ebay.com/itm/1909-S-Lin...047675.l2557 This raw one is in similar condition and just sold today for $63 delivered: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1909-S-Lin...AOSwPb5b2lSn ANA #R3154474 Edited by BH1964 11/07/2018 8:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 11/08/2018 07:34 am Quote: It nothing else they are more liquid. That is true. And Coinfrog's comment is usually true also. Lower value coins like this one normally do not justify certification costs. atchisonbj stated it well: "Slabs like this are either a mistake when sent off or they were included in a large lot....."

Correct, but as basebal21 said above, they are more liquid. Regardless, the person who paid to slab this coin gained less money as opposed to having left it raw.
