Thanks.
Sounds like a few people have seen/know the set I am talking about.
It is SOFT plastic with the cardboard backing.

The morgan and the peace dollar are common, and i am not worried about
the silver "nuggets", but, I do hate to violate the display

I just need to figure out how to do it to preserve the display
too.....I would hate to hurt my uncle's feelings on the piece and like
I said, it does look nice....


argh!


Thanks to those who answered with helpfulness.

My uncle gave me a "A Silver Story" a couple of years ago.
It has a silver cert, 1 oz silver "nuggets", 1 morgan and 1 peace
dollar.
I haven't seen the rev of the coins since there is plastic over them.
I have it on the mantle as it isn't expensive and it is nice to look
at.

My question is: Should I be concerned about PVC damage or anything to
the coins? I live in the pacific northwest so we have humidity here
and I think that is a negative as well.

If I should be worried about PVC damage, is there a way to keep the
items together and still have my nice thing to look at or should I
count it as a loss?

Thanks,

Yes! Get the coins out of that PVC plastic holder as soon as you can. Many nice silver dollars have been damaged by the plastic in those cheap folders.
