just got my 5$ gold from the mint,I like them.

When I first saw these they looked nice now w/ 5 in front of me,I flipped them all over to look at the coronet half eagle on the reverse and realized, this is what a mint employee looked at in 1906. It brought a smile to my face.................cool coin!.............proofs ya gotta lovem for what they are.image

    So none of the 5 were dinged or scratched up with the capsules coming apart during shipping?
