Not Worth The Money... ri1970mab, RI Rating 8/12/2011
This item and it is not worth it. Here are the things that I found wrong with this iten. Two or the proof dollars look like they been washed and the wood case has marks on it. I have bought other coins from them before and they were fine. I don't mine over paying for coins when they look good but this is not it. And now I get to pay for the return shipping.

1st Time... DeJean76, FL Rating 7/31/2011
I am not a coin collector. I only bought these coins because I buy anything "Bicentennial". The coins are absolutely beautiful! I could not have made a better purchase because I have these treasured coins so perfectly preserved in this equally beautiful case! I am happy with my purchase!
