<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Howard Ryan, post: 8128927, member: 118722&quot;][ATTACH=full]1415924[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1415925[/ATTACH] Hi, I have 4 intact proof sets sitting in a proof book (57, 59, 63, 64), two of which have a few tiny holes in them. </p><p><br /></p><p>I use to have around 9 intact proof sets from the mint in original packaging but the material is quite flimsy, probably not up to today&#039;s standards—as these were all minted in te 50&#039;s—and there were tiny holes in some of them, so I had to transfer them to saflips, which I sealed shut (see photo below). I don&#039;t know if this significantly lessens the value but I had to do it.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1415931[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I was thinking of transferring some of them (possibly the intact proof and safliped ones) to capital plastic holders but I&#039;m not sure how good they are for protection? Could I divide the proof sets up and then put them in the capital plastic holders with the original packaging? I&#039;m unsure if they&#039;d fit this way or if I might need to buy a different holder to account for the extra material. Imm nearly positive they saflips would not fit in the holders unless I got a full dollar holder set to account for the thickness of the saflips. I suppose this would give me double protection. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1415930[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1415929[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
