Just unpacked this last night. First time it has seen the light since it was boxed up and sent to me. Lol After looking at these and comparing them with what the mint produces today, I see a world of difference. The coins look much better 11 years ago than they do now.
Exactly why I am buying these now. I wish I would have known sooner. Mint only has the ugly obverse left...
I found a few more from the years before and after. I did find one neat item for the mint that I’ll post in a day or two.
