 Even mounted in a Capital Plastics holder they seem to move around. No affect on the value of the set, only thing that matters is pristine coins. |

This is the same set, same spots on the half and the dime, the coins are just rotated. You can't fool me.  |

2 Tanman: Wasn't trying to fool anybody!
This is obviously the same set.
I've modified the image to illustrate my question/point.
I personally prefer the image (hypothetical set) with all the coins in the upright position, and I was wondering if it would be worth my the time to rotate the coins in all my sets to an upright position, that is, would others see the same advantages.

If you are taking photos or displaying these for others to see, you should rotate them to an upright position
If you are not showing anyone else, and you're not bothered with them being rotated every which way, you shouldn't have to.

Tricky.  You had me going until Tanman pointed it out.  My initial thought was that I had no preference. I suppose because I know that the coins' positions will not be maintained if handled and I could see no noticeable difference in the coins from set to set (I got that right!). Even some older TPG slabs allow coins to rotate, from what I understand. Rattlers? In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Sneaky!  For what it is worth I would be cutting those coins out and putting them in a Dansco.  |

Sorry guys! I didn't mean to fool nor trick anybody by showing the original and modified images. I didn't realize my art work was that good. I'm primarily down-sizing my collection, and therefore, considering ways to enhance what I'm letting lose of, and retaining for my collection. I'm surprised that there were so many responses that indicated that removing proof coins from their original cellophane package would increase their appeal/value? Thanks for all the responses. Original (OBV and REV) images of this Proof Set are at the following Link: https://www.easyzoom.com/imageacces...b774a8631086 |

Look at the photo pairing. The top one shows digital artifacts around the coins from when the image was manipulated.
