is a slab a slab

Looking at the other coin you see things like early release and first strikes if I had one of the early release and one of the same that was first strike and both was slabed can I get that much more for one then the other ? lets say they are ms 65. Or is it better to just buying them raw and get them put in a slab my self ?

Comment by marvin o. rydberg jr on April 6, 2009 at 2:37pm: First strikes maybe more? Early releases always have a premium tag.However I wouldnt ever order an ms 70. Just my opinion though. The technical difference between a 69 and 70 is so small you and i nor anyone else can tell the difference. Its supposed to be that an ms 70 is perfectly even in strike across the coin . generally you have maybe 30 days. I would ask the person selling the coin {s} to make sure.you can get a refund. Also at some point you should be able to cancel your order if you dont feel comfortable with it.
