Why we grade, encapsulate & certify coins, banknotes, art...

Hi,
I have been wondering what the reasons are we choose to slab our works of metallic art?
From my perspective over the last 30+ years, certified coin & bank notes have gone through a few phases (in terms of popularity, price & availability) - some positive, some not so much.
Please tell us what your most important reasons are for paying to have a coin slabbed.
I realize, as with anything to do with collecting by humans, all things are subject to change - but some "things" which we use to evaluate our works of art, are much more important to us....
We are offering some unusual works of metallic & other forms of art - let us know if something strikes your fancy...

well OP, I looked at your ebay page and everything your selling is slabbed, so tell me why no raw coins?
Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
I think we have a raw 8 Reales for sale...
I buy raw coins & slab em. Wondering why...
A sale masked as a discussion about slabbing stuff.
At least it's on the BST though.
Yes, I am selling coins, banknotes, all kinds of art.
My question is aimed at understanding the reasons why we choose to pay a fee to encapsulate an object with an option of the condition.
