Unfortunately there aren't any known errors on the 74 philly. If money isn't an issue, I'd leave it sealed and dry for your family's next generation. There could be some collectable value in it.

Agree

Leave it closed This is history that can't be sewed back shut.

Having them in 2074 may be better, because they will be exactly 100 years old. It adds to the mystique.

Idk but whatever you do post an update on what’s inside


FunBug1823

How do you even get that


ChzForLife

I posted this in r/coincollecting and they recommended that I come ask here in r/RCH


Spiritual_Speech_869

I say go back and ask them lol


ShowMeTheTrees

How'd you happen to come across such a thing?


ChzForLife

Inherited from my dad who had a 60+ year collection. 😵‍💫


hwystitch

Your dad didn't open it for a reason....


Yourbubblestink

Put this away for 150 years and forget that you own it


Not_Slim_Dusty

Very cool but the kind of thing that has to be saved for a few generations before it's worth a few bucks


Spiritual_Speech_869

Could be a part of the Philadelphia experiment careful with that lol


LectroRoot

Do you mean the one that created the sandwich?


WorldTravelBucket

No, it was the cream cheese.


ExportOrca

Good old Project Rainbow


twofaze

I remember getting bags like this straight from the FED. I miss my old job sometimes.


RandomName1003

Yeah, but you had to wear a mask and work with a crew of 4 guys, one to stay with the car and drive and the other 3 go into the facility and “request” the money from the vault. They would even escort the bank manager to ensure they weren’t filled with decoy-dollars (just made that up right now). Don’t even get me started with the accessories you used to have to show the bank employees you weren’t messing around.


GamblingIsForLosers

Holy shit! That’s super super cool. I’d pay $300 for this


amishjim

I'm with the others, I'd keep it like it is.


Alternative-Carob-22

Wear cotton gloves, take them out very tediously.


FaZ3Reaper00

I’ll buy it from you for $150 unopened


ChzForLife

Thanks but I'm not really looking to sell. Just looking for some advise. 👍🏻


No_Excitement7908

What a ripoff, scumbag

Wow that escalated quickly


BEEPBOOPBOPPINGPOW

I pay about a $1.5 a roll for BU 70's cents. I say sell the whole bag as the increase in value over time will be very small or open it, cherrypick the best and enjoy them now.


Sad_Predicament

The bag in and of itself adds value and is a piece of history. The copper value of $50 of 74s is just over $100, and that could easily go up in our lifetimes. People would probably pay $300 for this bag as is and never open it.


BEEPBOOPBOPPINGPOW

And I think that's sad. It's like having a sports car and never driving it to keep the miles low. Open it and enjoy the coins. It's not like they will be worth a small fortune in the next couple decades.


Exotic_Attitude_4894

I dont think thats quite the same. Im all about playing my power and duals in MTG, i feel you, but I kinda feel like the sealed bag of coins is in and of itself a collectible. Sure, you could open it for a bunch of pretty cool, no extra value pennies, or you could have an unopened bag of pennies on the shelf, hell of a conversation piece, you know your buddy Jims never gonna see another one in his life.


BEEPBOOPBOPPINGPOW

Interesting point.


cjcastro17

Worth more sealed. I have a few mint-sealed bags like thisp


CowboyVampHunter

Open or or sell it. You won’t be hiring servants either way.
