Spence Moderator United States 34416 Posts	Posted 12/04/2019 9:17 pm No prob. Here is a link to a thread by @circus on Encased Cents: http://goccf.com/t/316965 And here is a link to a similar coin, but with an alternate explanation. Scroll most of the way down the thread and then read what Mike Diamond has to say. http://goccf.com/t/358753 "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

Because when the coin is removed, then you just have a nice looking damaged coin. Now it is just worth face value. In the holder, you will get more money for the coin with the holder as it conceals the damaged coin. Report this Post to the Staff
