[QUOTE="Beefer518, post: 7792563, member: 87737"]I picked up this 1969 Uganda 30 Shilling Papal Silver Commemorative for a hair over melt. It cam in its original wallet, and is still in it's mint sealed 'protective' holder, which unfortunately, is PVC. Even the ID label is in PVC. I can already hear the entire CT community screaming in unison - "Get that coin out of that PVC garbage and into a good acetone bath!!!!" (which I fully intend). But.... The coin is 60mm in diameter, and I have nothing to safely transfer it to, and my LCS has no holders (for sale) that will accommodate the coin. Do you guys think it'll be ok (enough) to leave it in it's holder until I can find a 60mm holder? I'm hoping I'll be able to find something at the winter FUN show in January, but I'm wondering if it'll happen with the latest (and future) CDC/COVID recommendations. Any suggestions welcome!
