<p>[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 82221, member: 4373"]You know, I don't really collect US coins in original packaging but I collect Soviet coins in their original packaging where ever possible. Chances that I pay at least 20 dollars unnecessarily just for the packaging and paper works etc. In one instance, I paid almost triple of what I could have just paid for the coin alone because of the rarity.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now that it seems that there are quite a fair bit of people into the slabbing craze, I have seen retards actually buying such boxed sets and get them slabbed, only to get their boxes and papersworks thrown out completely. I most certainly am not too happy over it as this means less original mint products left intact. And jesus, there is a reason why mints produce these boxes for a good reason you know. If not, they would just mint the coins and put them in coin capsules at most.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
