Would you slab a $20 raw coin — or just photograph it honestly?

General

Grading fees can swallow the value of an everyday raw coin. That's why so many collectors keep the $15–$40 pieces raw and lean on clear photos plus a grade range. When do you still submit? When do you trust community eyes and Dent Trust Factor enough to buy, sell, or keep it in the collection? Share a recent example.
