After 53 years, time to crack it open...

Let-The-Fun-Begin---1c-1960-Mint-Bag

First, cut the strings on the outer bag, which also has the label

Let-The-Fun-Begin---1c-1960-Mint-Bag

Inside, are three inner bags, of $20 each, also sealed.

Let-The-Fun-Begin---1c-1960-Mint-Bag

Finally, a peek inside!!

Let-The-Fun-Begin---1c-1960-Mint-Bag

Let the fun begin. Fingers are crossed for doubled 0 in the date, heavy cameos, die clashes, a MS-66 gem or two, and maybe even a nice error!!

Somebody owes TD Bank 25 cents for not promptly returning the bag after 53 years.

If I remember correctly......the first coin from that bag was picked by a young coin collector @ Coin Expo and the young fella picked a dbl date in 63.

Because thay were bagged, ya gotta expect bag marks, therefore,

I have found through experience that a bottle, or two or three, of quality scotch helps with sorting tasks.
