Newp PCGS Vault Box - I couldn't help myself
Meltdown
Posts: 9,102 ✭✭✭✭✭
This came into my local shop last month and I was pretty star struck. It's the first one I had seen in person and I suppose I just figured it was just a gimmick marketing fad. This one is all there though. I think it's a solid 63 and just a dynomite, frosty DMPL.
I tossed all my other CC's out the window and plan to keep this one.
(I probably have too much light flooding the photo's here, it's typical baggy as you would expect for a 63 but does not look near as harsh in hand.)

You don't like DMPL Morgans?

Not at the 63 level.
I would say decent eye appeal for a 63.
Just remember...the advice you receive on the site is worth every bit of what you paid for it.
I just looked it up on PCGS - They have this image on file.

It is.
Looks a little crunchy, but a decent coin that I'd have reholdered to lose the gimmick.

Even with a 10 foot pole?
[I don't love most coins at 63, I also don't love the price of many coins at 65.]

That's why they invented the 64 grade. It's the Goldilocks of MS.
Or AU55/58

Not a terrible idea but I won't waste the money. This is a rare case these days, I like the coin despite not caring for the holder.
Personally I find Vault Box, Traderbea and most 'special label' holders fairly ugly
You should check out some of the PCGS Asia designs. There are some very attractive ones IMO.

Those are pretty cool. I never knew they made so many.

Yeah. I wouldn't buy the holders if they didn't have coins in them.

Yeah, interesting. Never knew they existed.
Some of these Asia holders look pretty dang cool!
