    No as it has more value to a slab collector (compared to a college diploma).
    It's more like selling one of those silver/gold medals given out for high performers in certain schools back in the day.

    May have value to coin collectors who are also autograph collectors. Cheers, RickO

    If I could get good money, I would sell my diplomas for BSME & MSME…now they are worthless for me!

    The graduates of Witter Coin University also receive a “diploma” signed by all six instructors plus myself.

    The PCGS WCU slabs (thanks PCGS!) we’re given to students and friends of the program. They are free to do what they want.

    Collecting since 1976.

    Those were Jesse Ketchum medals. We had them here in Buffalo. I guess he lived here at one time and passed away here in the 1800's.

    I’d sell mine for $200. Any takers?

    Yes, if it is a degree in theology—from Liberty University. My flock is getting suspicious.

    Heh. I don't think the two are remotely equal in any sense. If I hadn't had the misfortune of being born 22 years before WCU 2021, I wouldn't even entertain the thought of selling my WCU slab. That said, to each their own, I suppose. On the other hand, my college diploma is nothing but a piece of paper that can be replaced in any event.
