<p>[QUOTE="jtlee321, post: 2694536, member: 73983"]So my local shop that I like to go to, got pretty well wiped out of inventory at the PNNA. I was a little disappointed, but the wait was worth it for new inventory. I picked up this 1955 Proof Set in the box today. The coins are not in the original cellophane, but had been placed in small open ended baggies. I'm not sure how original the set is or if it was assembled. But the silver coins all had fantastic cameo obverses with somewhat weaker reverses. All the coins appear to be higher end grade wise with very little hairlines to speak of. </p><p><br /></p><p>I was surprised at how nice they were after I got them home. I alway's examine my coins under a bright LED desk lamp in a darkened room. The desk lamp will alway's reveal anything I didn't see under the shops lights. But I was very happy with these.</p><p><br /></p><p>This half was the subject of another thread I had created, so it may be familiar to a few of you.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]605116[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]605117[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]605118[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]605121[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]605122[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]605119[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]605120[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
