Should I Remove Older Coins From Mint Packaging

I just purchased the entire British pre-republic set from The Gambia in one single ebay purchase. I know I spent too much for it and suspect I might have been the victim of shill bidding (the item went for exactly my max bid, which was quite a bit more than the "value" of the items). My fault, that'll teach me to finally learn how to use a sniping program. Live and learn. Anyway....the coins are housed as 1) a mint set containing all the 1966 coins as well as the 1970 8 Shilling coin, 2) A 1966 proof set, and 3) a single 1970 8 Shillings Silver proof. The mint set is not even listed in Krause. The coins in the mint set look good, but the set slides right open for very simple removal without damaging the case or coins. The proof coins are a different story. They are all individually wrapped in plastic (PVC? this is 1966 we're talking about here). The plastic has a lot of gross spotting issues which detract from the coins, but seems to affect only the outside of the plastic, for now. The 1966 proof set is then contained in a pretty nice fake velvet lined case (original packaging). The 1970 silver 8 Shillings is also in a fake velvet original case. Should I take the coins out and put them into individual 2 X 2's or leave them in their original packaging. These sets have awfully low mintages and once the packaging is gone... I guess I could save the packaging somewhere in a drawer or something so it could be replaced someday. What to do?
