gxseries Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Bad idea, now you have added some oil residues on your proof coin set. You should have sent them back or return it to the seller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just carl Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 this morning about 4 am i was admireing my 207 proof set WOW one of those rare 207 Proof sets. Which Ceasar is on them? Just think there was no USA back then so no coin dealers to jack up the prices. If I were you I'd either send it back or take it back to wherever you purchased it from. Sounds like it was exposed to excessive humidity. If from the Mint, they sould now object to that as a return. Happenes all the time. If from a dealer, take it back.
