Some toning and hazing should be expected when you purchase these items as well as some reasonable wear to the exterior packaging and box.
When purchasing coins in their Original Government Packaging, there are a few things to consider. Due to the age of these items, many of them will have some natural toning or hazing present on at least some of the coins. We are always sure to store these items in the proper manner to prevent this from happening. However, most of these items have had multiple owners before they made it to us.
