    From a coin shop for 2€ (2.25 American). Can´t see any sign of it being opened. Do they often turn up like this?

    Looks like the nickel is a misaligned die.

    The dime just roated in the older. Not sure what the question is.

    Actually several of them look like they are misaligned ,
    if not all of them.

    Actually the first time I got one that looked like it was unopened I thought the same thing. But you can carefully pull the flap of the black box out and open it up. So almost certainly someone checked it for errors and cameos at some point before you got it.

    It's the way it is placed in the holder that makes them appear like that. Best thing is to take them all out and take a picture.

    It must be early. It's an older holder! icon_smile_roflmao.gif

    Probably not. Much more likely is that part of the case is hiding part of the rim and making it look misaligned.

    sorry guys, forgot about the time difference. Worse for my mum and sisters living in Vancouver. I have a question. I bought at the same time 3 uncirculated Eisenhower silver dollars for 20€. They came in blue wallets and sealed in plastic with a blue plastic descriptive disc. They are 1971, 1973 and 1974. Are they ok as they are or should they be taken out of the plastic.

    Ive bought a few lately and left them in. If grading would be the only way Id remove.

    I've still got mine in the original packaging from when I bought 'em from the mint back at the time. Nothing untoward has occurred. The brown Box Ikes are a different story.......hazy .

    Funny... For some reason, I read it CORRECTLY and didn't even noticed the typo until I read the subsequent comments.

    The brown box Ikes are proofs and sometimes the haze is Polish_20200307_191928358.jpg Polish_20200307_192715675.jpg quite spectacular.
