<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 24661901, member: 101855&quot;]That is a Proof set, not a Mint Set. One would expect that Proofs would be about nice as the mint could do at that time. That was not always the case, the odds are higher than the coins will be better.</p><p><br /></p><p>I suppose that I should define the terms, for those who not familiar. Except for a brief period, well after the 1960s, Mint Sets are made of run of the mill coins that mint made for circulation. Proof coins are made from specially polished planchets and dies. The coins are struck with greater force and at a slower rate. The resulting coins have mirrored surfaces and should have better design details.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
