Grading Graces & Minting for Minions

[ady]

I have appreciated all the 3G posts and all your trials , tribulations and anxieties.

My question is does such a release lead to fuelling of the grading trade?

I started collecting junk bullion LSD and wonder if any have significant value, as have some that appear as little more than blanks being so worn but love the stories they may well tell.

Could a minted coin never spent be really gradable?

If  the same perfection was being sort for such collectibles, why not have new technologies applied ,such as a laser etched coin, or will it coin down to a mint?

My question is does such a release lead to fuelling of the grading trade? Potentially - especially if people are flipping.... I don't bother grading anything

I started collecting junk bullion LSD and wonder if any have significant value, as have some that appear as little more than blanks being so worn but love the stories they may well tell.  I think spot unless you have a rarity.  Have a load of LSD coins in my time and have not found any rarities.

Could a minted coin never spent be really gradable? Everything is gradable but it is down to the owner. I simply enjoy collecting and owning nice coins and personally don't need confirmation of their state

If  the same perfection was being sort for such collectibles, why not have new technologies applied ,such as a laser etched coin, or will it coin down to a mint?  The new 2021 Britannia has laser etched security devices!

 

My opinions in-line!
