    Always a treat to see that original purple velvet . . . . . .
    Quite rare, obviously, and a bear to find. Not cheap either . . . .

    Well done!

    That is very nice, but what about the $50s ?

    There were complete sets given as presentations that were in copper frames. There were velvet boxes that also included the two $50's, and there were individual velvet boxes for each $50 coin. I also believe I have seen a box that held just the two $50's as a set but I am not 100% sure on that.

    This example is in really strong condition too. My set is graded, but it would be fun to get some less expensive raw examples and keep them in the box.
