[QUOTE="COCollector, post: 2741876, member: 76108"]The capsule seriously distorts the coin's edge: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/cQJsicD.jpg[/IMG] It's easy to open the capsule -- just carefully pry it open. Then you can fairly assess the quality of the raw coin. Your edge inscription should look more like this: [IMG]http://www.coinnews.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Smooth-edge-of-2016-W-Proof-American-Silver-Eagle.jpg[/IMG] [url]http://www.coinnews.net/2016/09/16/30th-anniversary-2016-w-proof-american-silver-eagle/comment-page-1/[/url] Of course, be careful handling the raw coin.
