To me .... It depends

If your buying
If you plan to sell
If you not sure the coin you bought is real.

And of course the value of the coin.

If your very good at identifying a coin as genuine, or have access
to someone that is, than buying coins like a 09 S VDB or a 14 D
should be in done in a top three slab.

If your wanting to sell higher value Lincoln cents having them slabbed
by PCGS or NGC would be your best bet.

If you have Lincoln's that have a value from $75 to $150, for example
1909 S or mid to lower grade 1914 D's, using ANACS works for me.
Catching a ANACS on one of their good monthly specials can get your
coins slabbed in the $12 range. Having a 1914 D in a F 15 ANACS
Slab, will sell better than a raw one.

I had always thought the idea behind slabbing was to guarantee authenticity and to "commodify" the coin for selling, although I do know that there are those who collect them slabbed nowadays. Again, the old adage, "collect what you like". I'm with jbuck: not a slab collector, but I do have 3-4 that have come my way I am keeping in their little prisons. I've also acquired more than a few which have been cracked out for Danscos!
