The ones I got were from the 1980s, the dealer actually held them that long. It is common for dealers to issue a medal release and then sell 50-80% of it at a nice margin and keep the rest as a freeroll. It is all about proper storage and not looking at your coins. I got coins in double intercept boxes, followed by double vacuum seal that hasn't been opened in 5-10 years. Whenever I open one of these vintage boxes, the gold panda and lunars have the same eye appeal as when I sealed it. When gold breaks $2000 plan to open a few of these to start selling.
