    Have 3 PCGS slabs left after all the buying and selling I once done. I have a 1921 Morgan that I had slabbed just to see what it would do. It was gave to my parents by the doctor on the day I was born and they put it up and passed it on to me when I moved out. I was kinda surprised as it only came in at a MS61 and hadn't been in circulation since 1960. Guess it was passed around quite a bit between 1921 and 1960? I believe it was about 96 or 97 when I had it graded.

    Probably around 50. I'm trying to reduce to Zenny's box of 20. I think it is a wonderful system.

    Over 100 in my personal collection. More in inventory.

    I like the box of 20 idea too. I'm going to do just that. I'm going to do it right after I finish my type set image

    I've purchased 32+. I currently have 14 that I haven't cracked. I'm not crazy about slabs but am at the point in my Morgan collection where I need to get authenticated coins. I'm about to send 24 to ANACS--some EBAY purchases, some dealer and about 4 of the ones I previously cracked out.

    I have purchased four coins in slabs. I own none - I busted the slabs and still have all four coins. Other than the four, I had a REALLY hard time finding any slabs worth buying. They were either all overgraded, overpriced, or both.

    More than I need but not as many as I want. Maybe around 175 and that includes a full set of Morgans mostly PCGS, a full set of silver eagles and about a third of a set of Peace dollars.

    Probably about 40 slabs, little more than half PCGS, rest are NGC, except for a nice ANACS 66 York
    and a 1918 Walker ICG 62.

    Most have been cracked out and placed into books.

    Roughly 700 (+/- 50 since I am always trading, selling, buying).

    I recycled most of my extras or lower graded items for higher grades or different stuff (probably had closer to 1,000 a few months ago).

    Mostly PCGS (around 600)
    Some NGC (around 50)
    Few ICG (around 30)
    Few ANACS (around 20)
    Couple older PCI (15 to 20)
    My eBay Items

    I love Ike dollars and all other dollar series !!!

    I also love Major Circulation Strike Type Sets, clad Washingtons ('65 to '98) and key date coins !!!!!

    If ignorance is bliss, shouldn't we have more happy people ??

    Coin collecting is an addiction. One is too many, a thousand is not enough.

    Since I sold my Jay Ross Collections, I try to keep my collection under 100 coins.
