    I have 4 Frosted/Frosted XAG Rams still sealed in their flexible plastic OMP.
    Was going to put them into capsules to better protect, but before I did I thought Id ask the questions below

    Does anybody care about OMP for these cons?
    Would you pay anymore for these as a 2x2 set all still sealed and packaged together?
    Do any other XAG collectors still keep yours in the OMP?

    Thanks for comments

    As they are issued is always the rule for collectables hence the term in original packaging

    Makes no difference with these.

    Different if they were kooks or lunars but with only 300 made OMP will not make them any more valuable.

    Ps I love caps because everything looks shinier but with something with such low mintage if the omp is sealed and air tight then leave it, I think it would be better for the coin

    In my opinion. The packaging doesn't matter for these coins. Particularly as the F/F was the only coin stuck in that crappy plastic.

    It was a compromise because the manufacturer refused to put them in tubes. They were designed to be the cheapest Aussie made bullion. Weren't cheap enough, hence the piddling small mintage.

    As the coins designer (effectively) I say rip em out. ;)

    Thanks for comments,
    Think ill have to go with the coins designer and put them into capsules.
    (the plastic does make it harder to see the design, as its not clear)
    Whoever does still own these with OMP, your version may be about to become that little bit rarer
