Well most people (not all) on this board have cleaned, preservered, or dipped a coin at one time or another. Just not like the coin Doctors -...
Well - as I said not an expert on these. Then again how many times will you ask before you get it certified. That will end all speculation from...

Certainly an interesting coin. Don't know anything about them, but the face really looks ultra high relief.

I think you said it best. I can only see buying pedigree coins if you are willing to pay the premium some of them demand. The only 100% sure way...

I would find a nice sturdy envelope for them and leave them in the original packaging.
