I agree completely to what you said and what many others have been saying about slabbing. I am on the list even though I doubt I will ever own any chip costing much more than a couple hundred dollars. (At least until my daughter is married. She is 1 now). As for that piece of junky clay, I would grade it as a very cool looking old chip that I would like to add to my collection. (My criteria for grading) and I think you should send it to me asap. As for the other instigators posting here, ignore them until they have something valuable to say.
