[QUOTE="GreatWalrus, post: 1359431, member: 35925"]Hello, I'm relatively new to coin collecting. A few years ago I was handed down this 1921 Morgan silver dollar that is encased in a plastic slab. The coin is in pretty good condition, but I'm wondering if I'd be better off putting it in a mylar saflip or just keeping it in this case? To me, it looks like the coin was pressed down into the holder and a plastic cap put over top, rather than it being cast. The reason I believe this is because I can tap on the back of the case and hear a slight clank. I have no idea how long it has been in this case; could be 40-70 years. I also don't know if the coin has been cleaned. Any insight on these matters would help, Thanks.
