<p>[QUOTE="panzerman, post: 4396540, member: 77704"]I still have all my Franklin Mint Proof Sets from 1970s/ I kept mine in their protective plastic trays. All look as perfect as the day they arrived in mail. Lesson here is: Never remove coins from plastic holders<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I also at that time got a 1969 Biafra 5 piece gold Proof set from Valcambi Mint. These came with presentation box/ certificate. However coins where sent in separate plastic flips. I never took them out, still when I had them slabbed by CCCS/ they came out as PROOF 66/67s<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>So someone in the mint did handle them.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
