Some colorful finds from a sealed box of 75 proof sets

Cool. I wish I could run across deals like that.

I like the one with photos 5th and 6th from the bottom, stunning.

 

Despite the spots on the Lincoln Cent, the toning on that coin is super cool. Remember, I pay 5X bid, LOL.

 

I'd personally keep them in the packaging!

 

1961 proof sets

I know you checked all those Franklin halves for the double-die reverse, right???

 

Still checking..........

i am really digging the dimes. very nice toning on all the coins. i have a few sets like that. but my nickels did change color. they are now a blueish with some purples in it. very nice indeed. thanks for sharing

 

I was thinking the same as Rzage. Bad seams or pinholes in the pliofilm. Very fortuitous I would say. Real beauties. Congrat's

 

Yes, on some of them, I think it was the "seams" opening in between the coins, especially between the dime and cent,
I did end up leaving some of the sets that were just lightly toned intact, I'll give them another couple years to get some more color.

I'll post more pics as i take them, some of them are spectacular but hard to photograph.
