<p>[QUOTE="crusherjc, post: 2242753, member: 16898"]Hi everyone, I have all the early proof sets from the 1950-1955 in original boxes that I opened, so I know they are original sets. Almost all the coins are still brilliant without any ugly toning. My question is how can I store them to keep them looking as nice as they are now. I keep them as they came in the original cello, wrapped in the paper, in box in a safety deposit box. I know the paper and box are probably the biggest threats to the coins.I've debated removing them from the cello and putting them in a "Capital" year set holders, or perhaps individual airtites, or maybe even sending into NGC and having each year graded and slabbed in a multi-holder? I could just leave them as is, but cant really enjoy them if they stay in the orig box, to worried about handling them, and causing any damage to the coins. Any ideas, thoughts?</p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
