Here is some cool stuff. I am working through a large group/hoard of these packages. Some great coins and holders. More will follow later with great color and documents. If you didnt see, these go along with the Pan Pac from this thread.

Enjoy!

Never saw that Stack's Arkansas holder.

<< <i>Never saw that Stack's Arkansas holder. >>

I'll add few more of them later.

I do not favor the tarnish but the coins look really great.... and original packaging is a real plus...Cheers, RickO

I once watched a full time dealer break a Gem Oregon Trail set out of the card as if it was a piece of motzah. She couldn't figure out why a grown man would cry in her shop for no apparent reason. I just left that day, too shocked for words.

Every one is a real beauty!

Thanks for showing

Those boxes sure ruined those coins (toning is dang ugly). Good to keep the packaging but the collector should
keep an eye on what is happening with the coins. These look like they were put away and forgotten.
Shame.

Oh, I only see 5 images, do you really see 65 Lance?

golddustin · June 25, 2013 12:59AM

That rainbow Cleveland is mighty attractive - particularly the reverse, where the stars & compass are contrasted by the toned field - sweet coin!

Kove · June 25, 2013 1:51AM

Interesting assortment. I've owned each of those holders at one time or another. It's nice to see them all together.

Makes me wish I would have kept a few things which have slipped through my hands over the years, in the original package

ajman · June 26, 2013 9:20AM

Great thread, thanks for posting.

If you are hinting at the Arks, this is why you see so many dipped out or tan brown. Will also have a great Ark matched set to share later.

sparky64 · June 27, 2013 1:47AM

blu62vette,
Please stop posting to this thread, being on the boards, and..........GET TO WORK!

Honestly, for me, this is probably one of the most anticipated threads in a while.
I love classic commems and the various original packaging as well.

We're so fortunate to be able to see just what you've shown already.
Thanks!

AnkurJ · June 27, 2013 1:58AM

Very cool! The toning is a bit too far gone on some of them though.

Shamika · June 27, 2013 2:11AM

Love this post! Thanks blu62vette.

I love the historical aspects of the original packaging. One can preserve the packaging and the coins by storing them properly today. It might be too late for some of the pieces in your photographs, but that does little to diminish the thrill of seeing them together.

sparky64 · June 27, 2013 9:27AM

OK, I'm going to run this "B" movie to help pass time until the "A" feature film arrives. Kinda like a Popeye cartoon before Gone With The Wind.

Aknowlegement of order envelope and letter.

Coin envelope, etc...

lordmarcovan · June 27, 2013 9:39AM

Wow, those holders sure caused crap toning on those Arkansas halves. Sorry, I think the original packaging is neat, but I'd have to resist the temptation to dip those coins. (No, don't worry, I wouldn't, but I'd sell them to somebody else who appreciated them more.)

This, on the other hand is really neat:

Really, ALL the packaging here is neat, from a historical standpoint, even if some of it wasn't ideal for the coins.
