[QUOTE="Publius2, post: 3912007, member: 105571"][LEFT][SIZE=16px][FONT=Verdana][COLOR=rgb(20, 20, 20)]Take your chances if you like on authenticity and quality. The WL half is about 600 if genuine and a clean grade. This coin should be slabbed as should the 3 cent nickel. Interesting that the holders appear to have been printed with a dot matrix printer. I don't think I've seen one of those since the late '80s. If so, that might mean that the coins have been sitting in a holder with PVC, prevalent at the time, for some decades and might have some damage. I would view this with suspicion, unless you're a gambler.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/LEFT][/QUOTE]
