Certified/Slabbed Coins

[Cruzr Joe]

I am checking to see if anyone on Spyderlovers is a collector of Certified/Slabbed coins? ie PCGS, NGC.

I'm not, but my ex-husband was. Why are you asking?

Not sure what they are.

Not sure what they are.

When collectible coins are graded by one of the agencies that do that, they are then encased in clear plastic cases (slabs) with the description and grade noted on it.

when i was a kid my grandmother would get a load of silver dollars and put them in a paper bag and us kids at Christmas would reach in and get to keep what ever we could pull out with our small hands. i remember the last time i saw the ones i had we in the 1800's, than mom put them somewhere and i forgot about them. after mom passed i was cleaning out her room and remembered the coins and looked for them. to this day i can't find them and have no clue where they are.

I have dabbled in coin collecting .. have lots of Morgan silver dollars... some very old pennys, nickels, dimes & quarters... quiet a bunch of 1oz silver rounds.. a Gold Double Eagle, one Gold Kugerrand and half dozen Credit Suisse 1 oz gold bars... some of the Morgan Dollars came in the plastic you described....
I am not a coin collector .. but thought I wanted to own some of these coins to pass on one day..
