    I bunch more than they were worth.

    In another thread you asked about 1958, 1959, 1960, and 1944 (64?) proof cents. To justify cost of PCGS slabbing you would need to get near PR68 or CAM PR67 or DCAM PR66.

    A proof 1944 would be unheard of and very valuable in any grade.image

    Depends which of the big 3 I sent them to. Could be as low as a few hunderd or over 1k. Problem is, I'd lose out adding up the slabbing fees.

    It's an impossible question to answer. If it worth slabbing it gets done. If it's not that it won't happen. One thing for sure is that I would never slab something just so it could get up on a registry.

I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    probably 4,500.00 to 5,000.00. No way buddy. That's a lot of nice coins for that kind of cash!

    i don't know about the cost of slabing, but the cost of psychiatric treatment for me would be astrnomical!

    Only about $1400, which is one of the reasons why I'll never do it (includes 8 silver proof sets and 2 mint sets).

    A lot, because I don't have many generic raw uncirculated and proof coins.

    A lot more than they would be worth!
