    it is probably best to keep them boxed if you are going to resell

    As opposed to what? Do you mean in OGP or do you mean in their unopened shipping boxes? What is this post in reference to?

    Resell is one thing, keep them in the box and in the Air-Tites. If your going to send them in for grading then you just need to keep them in the Air-Tites. I've no idea what Danr is referring to.

    Just got mine today ... it is GORGEOUS!

    This is the nicest proof i've ever gotten from the mint.

    So much reflectivity in the field you can clearly see my camera and camera lens

    Is there a slight nick in the skit at the knee ?

    I got mine today too. I have several that have small nicks on the frosted areas. The first two I opened had them on the top of the shield.

    Most of the rest that I have opened so far look pretty good, except that there is a lot of lint inside the air-tite.

    So, I tried to cancel some of my orders before they went on sale. I guess the mint reinstated them as part of that large mishap they had. Does anyone know whether I will have to pay return shipping to return them now? I thought the mint paid shipping on returns, but I just read that they don't.

    sealed shipping box. I seem to do better that way

    I hate when you get stuff like that where there is a noticeable break in the finish like that .

    Lint was a problem with mine as well, even after using a Rocket Blower on the plastic:

    My subscription of two arrived today. They are absolutely beautiful. I can't find a single thing wrong with them, but I'm new at this. aside from the break in the frost shown above, is there anything else i should look for? I'd post a pic if I had the equipment. Thanks!

    I got five today. The last coin had a scratch on the plastic holder. Should I send it back or just replace the holder?

    It would be much easier to replace the airtite, rather than send it back and re-order . IMHO

    Thanks for the advice. I think I will try to find an airtite. Also, I hate to return stuff. It is kind of like returning food at a restaurant.
