[QUOTE="5dollarEdunote, post: 1206340, member: 28757"]Hello collectors, Today I visited the mint, and after looking at the gift shop I have decided that I might get the $5 Army Gold Commemorative. But, because I dont like the case it comes with and I want more protection for it, I want to sumbit it to PCGS. I am thinking about getting the proof version, so I am worried about how I can safely remove the coin, package it, and send it to PCGS. 1. What is the best way to remove the coin from its capsule? Can you send it in the capsule? 2. If you cant send it in the capsule, what do you put the coin in? Ive heard about flips, but I'm worried the fact that the coin can slide around in the flip might hurt the coins chances of getting PR-70 because of the coins overall "fragileness" being a proof. Are flips safer than I think? Thank you! Im in a rush so I might have forgotten some of my questions or made errors.[/QUOTE]
