[QUOTE="lincoln64, post: 14620, member: 1232"]I got the coin in the mail today. It's in a nice protective folder (maroon cardboard) with the words: 1987 WALKING LIBERTY U.S, SILVER DOLLAR printed in gold When you open the folder there is an envelope with the coin. When you open the envelope there is a COA card with a hole in it for holding the coin. There is a thin clear plastic sheet on both sides of the card. The plastic is not attached to anything they are just sheets. The problem is that the coin is held in place (on the reverse side) with a strip of clear adhesive tape. There is some "toning" around the edge, except where the tape contacts the coin. My question is, Should I remove the tape? Doing so will damage the cardboard holder by peeling away the outer layer of the paper. If I take the tape off it will likely leave some adhesive on the coin. If I leave the tape on the coin will continue to tone and have a stripe from the tape on it. Any suggestion?? PS the coin looks really good and has a profflike appearence[/QUOTE]
