[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 24699604, member: 101855"]Contrary to some opinions, these coins hold up surprisingly well in the box holders IF the set is stored under consistent temperatures and a low humidity environment. I had to put my 1953 set in a Capital Plastics holder because the cellophane sleeve deteriorated around one of the coins. I have to admit that I enjoy the set more in the Capital Plastic but still prefer the box if it is good shape. The quarter in your set probably had something on it when it was packaged in 1952. Sometimes residue was left from the planchette cleaning procedures.[/QUOTE]
