Thanks.......man!... they do shine too !
A corner of the mint packaging box (the case sleeve) is smashed on one of the two boxes....
I don't mean the outer cardboard "shipping" box, it's the "case sleeve box". Luckily the plastic case isn't scarred or anything.
There are a few fine hairs floating around in the cases too. I haven't yet put a light and mag. glass on them.......almost afraid to, because I don't want to "send it back" !.....

The one with the damaged sleeve is the one you crack for the Dansco!

I want you to crack all of your proof sets and put them in Dansco Albums!

I did it! So can you! It is easy!

I planned on my first foray into the previously unknown world (to me) of "cracking cases", to be the much famed Presidential Proof Dollars !...

Ahhhh.......that's better......had to re-read your comment. I thought you had said all of my Silver Proof Sets.....but I see you only said "Proof Sets".....

Eaglefoot breathes a sigh of relief and continues on....
