[QUOTE="y2k95, post: 2282371, member: 73832"]I've been looking into purchasing some of the mint "special" coins that come out each year. For instance the 2014 W Gold Kennedy Half. From what I've seen people on ebay either list them in OGP, or Graded with a First Strike designation. Some will still be sealed in the original mint shipping box, though I don't care for this option because I would like to appreciate my coins while I wait for more opportune time to sell or trade them. Currently I'm leaning more into keeping them in OGP, but at least what I think when looking through ebay is "this coin is in OGP that must mean it wasn't worth grading" and with sending coin in there is always the risk of damaging it when taking it out of the mint packaging or it not grading the elusive PF 70. Any thoughts? Happy Thanksgiving[/QUOTE]
