<p>[QUOTE=&quot;duma, post: 373853, member: 14588&quot;]Hi. I&#039;m new here, and joined, because I have a question, I thought someone could help me with. I&#039;ve asked a friend in the coin collecting business if he had any 1958 uncirculated coins to give a friend who&#039;s turning 50. He gave me (to look over) a few coins that are in excellent (very shiny, looks new) shape, and are in plastic folders. it says 1958 &quot;proof&quot; on them. a washington quarter, and a franklin 1/2 dollar. And he also gave me a sealed brown envelope that looks old, and says 1958-P.C. in the lower left corner on the front of the envelope, and is stamped with Treasry Department, United States Mint, Philadelphia 30, PA. He says it&#039;s a set of uncirculated mint coins from 1958, but says I can&#039;t open the sealed envelope! Well, I&#039;m trying to decide whether I want to buy this, but is it weird that the envelope itself is sealed? If I do buy it, shouldn&#039;t I at least open it to see what I&#039;m giving to someone? I completely trust and know the family of the man selling me the coins. That&#039;s not the issue. He said it was sealed when he bought it, and asked me to keep it sealed. Is this common? It&#039;s a brown envelope, so I have no idea what&#039;s in it! Can any of you help?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>thanks.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>duma[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
