<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Miko W, post: 1888733, member: 68055&quot;]I really have no interest in US Mint proofs in the nice velvet clamshell, etc. But at least they are a relatively dignified setting for a coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a couple of Eisenhower dollar silver proofs, and they are in tacky 70s packages. Two of them are in cheap plastic like they use for lollipops, and have ugly blue plastic tokens with them, etc. One has a large milk spot even sealed in the plastic. I&#039;m sure you&#039;ve all seen them. One is in a giant plastic slab.</p><p><br /></p><p>I love these coins, esp. the back with the eagle landing on the moon.
