So I have several coins that are in slabs and are slabbed as "uncirculated" should I send them in to get graded instead of leaving them in the slabs?

Please post a photo or two to show what's currently in a slab--an example to help focus our response. Thanks.

AS a general answer,
If the coin has a potential value of less than $100 after grading,
then the grading and shipping fees are not justified.

Some collectors adopt a minimum value at higher than what I have suggested here.

Pics of an example of what you're talking about would help.

No. The cost of grading would be vastly more than the coins are worth to begin with

Probably not, but ANACS does have a fall special right now. That is relatively cheap.

And regardless of what some people say, they are a reputable company. Let me expand. I don't think anyone is saying ANAC is nto reputable, just that their resale value is below the other two.

However; if you just want to have peace of mind ANACs is a good choice.

They look AU-ish to me. the 87-S also appears to be cleaned.
Not worth grading IMO.
