Any coin sold as "mint uncirculated" or "Proof" will come in some form of protective packaging.
There was a specimen 1977 Crown coin issued in a "presentation" folder.
There was also a Proof FDC Crown which was issued by the Royal Mint as part of a year set (1977) of 7 coins in a tamper proof plastic case.
It is not uncommon for some years sets to be disassembled by coin dealers as demand wears off for them, and repackaged as individual coins. The packaging is most likely to be some form of plastic case.
It is more likely that coins made from precious metals would come in a box, as distinct from a plastic case.
