To free em or not to free em that is the question?

Boxes of 20 just are working for me for my encapsulated HTT's.
Everyone I've spoken with who owns Lighthouse 36 or 56 slab albums says that they scratch up in time.
So I'm strongly considering buying a band saw and setting them all free.

To Err Is Human.... To Collect Err's Is Just Too Much Darn Tootin Fun!

Something about a hard time token being unencapsulated that feels right.

My local dealer had a couple of ancient Roman silver coins that were slabbed.
I commented to him that they'd been in his display cabinet for several years and would he maybe like to get rid of them already.
To make a long story short, I bought them both and de-slabbed them when I got home.
Ancients simply feel better that way methinks.
Why not get two NGC boxes to hold your collection? The slabs are held apart and don't get scratched.

They are mostly all NGC encapsulated. This is something I've been pondering about for a while now as I don't find slabs to be a enjoyable way to view my collection. I'm actually considering speaking to NGC and see if they Photo Cert all of them as they have for some mint errors I own.
Yes slabs make it hard to enjoy them. I agree. Ive got one piece in an NCS slab ...a hazy grey plastic that I cant pollsh up to save my soul. If I can cross it to PCGS im going to do that....
