    I started in this hobby way back in 1974 filling Whitman blue boards and later folders with coins similar to this. And I still have every single coin and folder. To me, these are priceless. Meaning, they are far more valuable than ANY other coin in my collection (hoard as I call it), several of which being gold. So for someone to slam a new collector, saying it's only worth face value, is extremely disheartening not to mention destructive to the future of this hobby. Perhaps the fascination of fancy stickers and labels is your reason. Or at least that seems where your collecting truly lies.

    Sergio, keep it. It's beatiful in it's own way and perhaps one day you'll see as much.

    I see nothing wrong in telling someone who’s asked for feedback, that their coin has no extra value. It might be “priceless” to the owner, but that’s a separate matter.
