just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 06/26/2017 08:40 am I have no slabbed coins. Over the years I've acquired some but always break the coins out for my Albums. This is regardless of the price. Even if I had a coin worth many thousands of dollars and in a slab, I'd just break it out for my Albums. I really don't see any reason to keep a coin in a slab since that would only be for resale purposes and I never sell a coin. Report this Post to the Staff

dd27 Pillar of the Community United States 666 Posts	Posted 06/30/2017 11:14 pm I bought a bunch of slabbed Lincoln wheat cents when I got back into coin collecting last year, but, partly influenced by y'all, I have decided that I like raw coins better. Buying slabbed coins started to feel like I was an 'investor', not a coin collector. That's simply my self-perception, I don't make that assumption about others. Plus, I suspect that all currently slabbed coins will eventually need to be re-graded when computer-grading takes over. By 'need' I mean that over time people will start to doubt the accuracy of human-graded coins and they will want the computer-grade. ~ Mark Report this Post to the Staff
