I've recently acquired a few GSA Dollars that did NOT come with the OGP..
Does the Brown Ike box fit the GSA Dollars? I haven't found any info on this and cannot find any Brown Ike boxes for sale on ebay.. I can find the GSA Dollar Boxes relatively easy and pretty cheap. I'm considering putting the reverse toned CC GSA I bought into a Brown Ike Box if it will fit.. It will definitely allow for easier Reverse viewing.
I'm interested if any of you have a Brown Ike and GSA Hardpack and could tell me if they fit.. If not I guess black GSA Boxes it will be..

I'm curious if anyone else has any other solutions or holders that work well? Curiosity really got to me here

I did not want to dig out my GSA Morgan's ...
But I did have a empty GSA box sitting on my desk.

So I checked if the Brown/silver Ike would fit into the
GSA box. It looked like a good fit. My guess is they are
the same size holder.

If it was me.... I would buy the correct GSA box off ebay.
When I get a new GSA, with no box or damaged box
I buy a better box on ebay, with correct COA.

If I wanted to display the toned reverse... I would put it into
the GSA box upside down.
Rest in Peace

Send it to NGC or PCGS and you have a great box with the added benefit of a TPG grade.

Coin collectors are almost as bad as stamp collectors. I worked for the USPS and we had collectors who would take any postal object, symbol, box or any other item with the postal insignia on it. They would beg us for what I considered just junk. Little did I know the mind of a true collector.

Just buy the boxes/cards on ebay, won't cost you more than $10 ea.

I bought a bulk pile of 100 GSA boxes about 8-9 years ago for $100 and have pulled from them any time I have needed some since. The cards are a different story, I have a couple dozen of each of the common types, but the rarer dates get expensive really fast.

I know Gilder Coin Shop in Tampa had quite a few GSA Morgans at the Fun Show. I got a 1884 for $200. No great deal but I don't think you can get great deals on these GSA Morgans.
