[QUOTE="PassthePuck, post: 8356368, member: 98916"]Well, I posted a response yesterday, but for some reason. i must not have saved it. First, thank you everyone for responding. I tried to take better pictures, but they didn't turn out better than the first ones. I bought this set in an auction in which two sets came in a 1969 P & D tan envelope that was sealed at the mint...never been opened. So I was kind of hoping for something great! But, once I opened the envelope, I saw that the coins were in bad shape. Both sets look like someone grabbed a bunch of coins and through them in a food saver and heated the plastic. But the envelope was sealed from the mint. All of the coins are dirty. I did use my microscope to take pictures of the date that dynoking has questions about. My concern is...do I leave them like they are, or take them out and slab them to protect them from further contamination? Here are these pics!
