Which would you prefer and why?

Ten Gem quality coins that are raw or the same ten coins that are slabbed.

If price is the same then I'd rather the slabbed ones.

_I prefer 10 RARE and I mean Rare RAW Gem quality coins and a walk through at PCGS. Oh the excitement, the anticipation. It's better than the first time I got a Date to agree to go to the lake one night in my Camaro and watch the submarine races.

My '54 Chrysler didn't have a record player but I worked around
that

Slabbed to the OP 😀

Absolutely no doubt I would rather pay to have those same 10 gem coins graded by PCGS rather than keeping them raw, even paying the grading fees and round trip shipping. Yes, I forego the pleasure of holding them, but I gain:

1. Protecting them to a large extent from accidental damage.
2. When the time comes to sell, either by me or my heirs, minimizing the arguments over grade and authenticity by the buyer.
3. Adding them to my “boys game” of the Registry.
4. Depending on the dates, grades, etc., in all likelihood then spending just $145 for the 10 coins plus round trip shipping to CAC.

With all things being equal, I prefer the 10 graded coins !!!
