I think maybe slabbing is the only way to keep coins from being touched and affirming the grade, as long as it is never opened. I also think maybe we were hoping to get some interest in possible cross hobby. I find chips at the coin shows, it is the casino's currency. So in a way similar to money. Also at the coin shows they have paper currency which aren't coins either, Disney dollars, etc. I lmk the idea as long as it doesn't overshadow the chips and casino items. Why not have a few coins in your case to show. A lot of chip collectors are coin collectors too and a lot of coin collectors are chip collectors. Be nice if we could get more coin collectors interested in chips. I am one who has pretty much switched to chip collecting from coins, I on occasion still pick up a couple coins of interest to put away, but I spend 99.99 of my time with chips. I'm not an officer for the club but these are only my thoughts on the matter, Torrey
