<p>[QUOTE=&quot;andrew289, post: 286517, member: 6463&quot;]I asked a dealer at a show about this years ago. I buy a lot of sets and he said that I should only buy sets with the token. Not that that is any certainty of authenticity but he told me this story:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He said that some dealers are assembling their own &quot;sets&quot; sealing loose coins that they have already cherry picked and buying reprinted envelopes and selling them as original gov&#039;t packaging. When this is done, most do not include the token, because who has a bunch of tokens laying around? Not many.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Again, it&#039;s still possible to cherry pic a set with the token and reseal them so you never really know unless you take the time to examine the coins before you buy and that can&#039;t always be done with the pics provided online.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Who knows if tere is any truth to his theory or not. I&#039;m not a dealer so I don&#039;t what kinds of tricks of the trade are out there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
