phillyprod Valued Member United States 105 Posts	Posted 03/20/2025 8:52 pm So I typically prefer my coins in their OGP. HOWEVER, for a few years, as well know, the Mint severely downgraded their packaging. I just received a Platinum Eagle proof in the old crappy packaging, but would really like it in a nice clamshell. Does anyone know how I might be able to get a nicer display box for my coin? I've looked on ebay but didn't seem to have much luck. I figured I might have better luck around here.

Dearborn Moderator United States 70317 Posts	Posted 03/21/2025 1:33 pm @phillyprod, I have about 10 Clam shell Blue Velvet lined boxes that fit the US ASE's I bought them back in 2021 to do the same thing you are trying to do, but I never did. I can let them go for $10.00 each (If I remember I got them for 15 back then..) PM me if you want them. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Dearborn Moderator United States 70317 Posts	Posted 03/21/2025 9:21 pm are they? I had no idea.. thanks for that. Are they larger of smaller? (I would assume smaller due to the metal content.)

Gilly Pillar of the Community United States 601 Posts	Posted 03/21/2025 9:49 pm ASE is a little easier, 40.60mm, 1.598". On the platinum, I'm assuming that's the $100 1oz, That is 32.7mm, 1.287". Report this Post to the Staff
