Moreover, coin dealers recommend investing in grading an error or variety for good reason.  For instance, the potential return of investment could be far greater than the original cost of investment.

Furthermore, the financial investment pertains to covering the costs of insuring, shipping, and the grading of each coin. However, it’s better not to submit some coins for grading.  In other words, people who don’t heed the warning often lose money as a result.

Furthermore, companies like NGC, PCGS, Littleton Coin Company, and ANA, all participated with their own creative programs.  It’s been said that this was the largest numismatic promotional program of all time.” – Rob Oberth –  (“Coin Dealers Helping Coin Dealers”)
