<p>[QUOTE=&quot;foundinrolls, post: 574791, member: 4350&quot;]Hi,</p><p><br /></p><p>All the coins were plated and unfortunately were not part of a &quot;Mint Set&quot; but were placed in an after market holder after the coins were plated.&nbsp; This is also known as reprocessed.&nbsp; This was done to coins after they left the Mint in order to make them saleable after they were worn a bit.</p><p><br /></p><p>The re-plating causes the doubled look on the mintmarks and often on other details.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope you didn&#039;t get charged too much,&nbsp; the coins that are reprocessed are technically damaged and are worth about five cents each.&nbsp; Many times it was done to a coin with rust.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The coins are not what they appear to be.&nbsp; They are sometimes sold as uncirculated but of course, they are not.&nbsp; The fact that you think that these are a part of a &quot;Mint Set&quot;&nbsp; indicates that the seller did not have enough information on these before he sold them to you.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;In fact you can see spots of rust coming through again on the 1943 D piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>My guess is that they were in something similar to this:</p><p><br /></p><p>Note,&nbsp; this one has a copyright date of 1993 on the back of the holder&#039;s insert. Yours might have something similar.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.foundinrolls.com/images/cu/war1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.foundinrolls.com/images/cu/war2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
