We discuss the differences between collecting and investing in graded versus raw coins. Graded coins are those that have been evaluated and encapsulated in protective holders by professional grading companies such as NGC, PCGS, ICG and ANACS. Raw coins are those not in such holders. The sources explore the advantages and disadvantages of each, focusing on authenticity, protection, liquidity, and potential value appreciation.

The sources generally agree that graded coins offer significant advantages in terms of authenticity, protection, established value, and marketability compared to raw coins. While raw coins are still popular, especially for stacking purely for precious metal content, graded coins, particularly those with high grades and low mintages, are highly sought after by collectors and investors for their potential for appreciation and the confidence provided by professional certification. The decision to collect or invest in raw versus graded coins often comes down to individual preferences, investment goals, and budget.
