BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4588 Posts	Posted 03/19/2024 12:03 pm The mint sold uncirculated coins in the blue packs and proof coins in larger, fancy brown boxes. 52 years later, they are finally (re)selling above original issue prices, IF they have been kept in good condition. Ratty cellophane, spotted coins, and the like don't help sale values. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 03/19/2024 12:03 pm What do you want to know about them? They are 40% silver uncirculated coins. You are missing the 1974S like this to complete that part of the set. The 1973S is the better of the four. One of your coins appears to have carbon spots on the reverse from improper storage. ebay market value is about $15 each when combined with original blue envelope and OGP card.

I speculate these may look better if removed from the cellophane, but doing so is a personal choice — an intact OGP does hold additional value for some people. I suggest you at least wait until you have a place to put them, be it 2x2, capsule, album, etc. Ask as many questions as you want, we are here to help!
