Selling Empty Original Government Packaging?

People have been selling the COA's for the GSA Carson City Morgans for as long as I can remember - as long as the date of the COA (first 2 numbers) matches the date of the dollar I see no reason that wouldn't be ok matching the paper with the GSA box and coin.


As far as all the other OGP packaging, boxes, and containers those should be fine to sell. I've sold ASE proof boxes before - no problems.

I had a 1973 French BU set that was given to me as a present when I was a kid. The outer box got rather tatty but the sealed envelope inside was perfect. One day I found another set in a coin shop going very cheap and bought it - the outer box was better than my old one but the envelope inside wasn't! I transferred my set into the 'new' box and split up the 'new' set and transferred the coins to my album. If I sold it I'd quite happily describe it as being in the OGP.

I believe many members here are in the same boat. Selling seems ok as long as nothing misleading after all they're just empty holders. Not much money in them aside from what you can add with shipping, then use the proceeds to buy more coins. I thought about selling mine (when I open an ebay "store") or housing some of my error coins in the ones I have,
