So I bought the 25th ase set last summer. up until now I had them kept in their display box in a large tub with a recharge silica pack. however knowing that the packing itself can be harmful I finally took them out. They are now in a ziplock as you see and the zip is open to allow flow to the gel pack. now if i keep them as is do you think they are ok? I never touch my sets, only the ngc box so movement isnt much of an issue. just curious about this method of moving them out of their storage box. thanks
I wouldnt store them like that. Depending on how tight the coins are in the holders, they could move and cause surface friction within the holder.
The coins will be fine, it really isn't necessary to do anything extra with the OGP, they do a fine job of protecting the coins on their own. Though I would say that I hate the new blister packaging that they have been using for a few years, they require a little more protection. What happened to your Mercury T-Dog?
The photo of the merc was just a stock photo. The seated liberty is actually my own coin and my favorite in the collection. Although mercs are still my favorites, I'll update the profile pic when I purchase my proof merc. hopefully later this year after finishing my type set.
