Determining Fair Market Value Of Coins Removed From Holders.

I like the idea but I am also curious if the coins will actually last in the album. It is nice to display them in the album but there MS state and finish will in do time fail. I know it is extremely hard for me to keep coins that way. I just wish they would come up with an expensive album that securely saves the finish on coins. There may be albums like that today I have just never looked into this way. You are right though it is nice to have albums to display your collection. How would you show off your collection if you pulled out 100 slabs and then had someone look at them. I can see both sides so good luck collecting.

Bottom line - when you remove these coins from their holders, you remove all the value attached to their grades, and throw a lot of money down the drain. They're worth little raw, let's face it. Poor decision to crack out coins like these.

Dowhat,
You can use Greysheet values and/or CPG values which are based on the grade of the coin and not the TPG.

e.g. 1957 D rd MS 67: Greysheet = $300; PCGS=$375

One question lingers......Why buy the slabbed if you're going to break them out?

While I'll second that to John1's comment, and to add that for relatively rare coins that have a history of being faked, I'll but the slab, knowing that it is an authentic coin. Which is something I have done in the past.

also I'll usually buy nigh high grade details coins to crack out for albums But they have to have good eye appeal. coins like that get an AM or MS details grade is what I mean by 'high grade'

I assume those who remove coins from slabs save the slab label for provenance so in the future a coin with label will be less suspect when selling? Of course there's no guarantee a coin is a match to the label unless it's photographed on the grader's site

OK, My early Lincoln set includes 3 slabbed coins, the 09SVDB, 22 No D, and 14D. With the exception of the slabs, the set was accumulated from circulation finds in the 60's and 70s. Most of the circulated specimens are VF-XF. Wheats are not difficult to grade. The 3 Keys noted above were all purchased in the past 5 years, as I wanted a complete set when I retired. I bought slabs for piece of mind with all the fakes out there. I will not break them out.

Collectors of anything do it for various reasons and in different manners. John 1 is correct, I am not a proficient grader.
A great majority of MS grade LMC can be had for an affordable price in trades from 66 to 68 and on occasion even 69. The person that lost the most money is the one that submitted them for grading. They threw away alot more money than myself a I end up with them for a reasonable price. To say these coins have lost any worth once removed from the slab is debatable. Values for slabbed coins very amongst the top three as you all know. And often their opinions are disputed by the submitter. There is no set standard in the industry. You are paying for someone's opinion and everyone has different opinions.
And,I were to purchase a raw coin at a LCS or coin show that would be the dealers opinion. If I were to sell my slabbed coin to a dealer I would surely be offered less than I paid for it. It may take decades for the coin to appreciate in value or could even depreciate. The slabbed coins I purchase are all red. Being able to examine them out of the holder provides me the opportunity to note the often subtle differences in the grade, improving my grading skills in the process.
My collections are for my pleasure, not an investment. I want to see them all together, not in boxes encased in plastic.
I only asked a simple question in the opening of this thread. And I received only one informative reply. Thank you Freespeech 57. Most of the replies concerned opinions as to my choices concerning my collecting. I was not seeking opinions about my decisions being flawed or admirable. It is clear from the example provided by Freespeech 57 that the coin lost did not lose any value it had after liberation. Yes, the raw coin is worth less but it still has value. All I was asking is if the information was avaible for pricing raw coins and the answer was a simple yes. I was simply curious.
Losing a bit a value is not going to deter me from putting nice looking coins in "my" collection.
Thanks to all for your replies even though only one addressed my question. I'll have to get the graysheet I suppose to satisfy my curiosity.
