[QUOTE="howboutatrade, post: 1052317, member: 10387"][b]Great Photo and Purchase[/b] Great picture. I can never get mine that good. Couple years back I bought a couple 1984 olympic coins from a person on ebay. One Silver and One Gold no picture included with the auction....I paid under gold spot for both. I was happy and wanted the gold coin. When I received, the person had pulled the coins from Original Mint Packaging and put the coins into a box with some kind of liner with holes cut for the plastic holders. Somewhere along the way, the plastic holder on the silver coin had cracked. Below is a picture (best I could do anyway...blue toning gets lost though)...now it is one of my favorite coins in my collection. Should I have it slabbed? Is that a better way to preserve versus the new air tight I put it in? Probably PR67 or PR68 [ATTACH]103573.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
