Should these toners go to the slab factory?

I've been considering for a while slabbing these... especially for resale. Since it would be faster and cheaper, I'd probably go with NGC on them...

I also have a 76-S in a proof set but can't find the picture--it's got navy blue stripes.

You're thoughts?

    That 68-S is super nice! I'd slab them just to protect them at least.

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    I have some too Jeremy
    Let us know your result when you decide

    ANACS or NGS would be my choice
    I've had better luck with ANACS

  • Yeah, slab them... I think you're right that it would be easier to sell them that way.

    Great looking coins! I love toned copper.

    You're sending them to NGC? I'm seeing "stars". The 68-S is awesome!

    NGC is cheaper than ANACS... I can get Modern (which I heard is going on a 2 week turnaround) for $9.90 a coin... ANACS would be $15 for 5-day, or $8 for 3-months...

    Business strike toners are much harded to find, I have 5 proofs for every 1 business strike coin.
