[QUOTE="grizz, post: 799867, member: 8722"]....i think most collectors expect a very nice looking shiny near flawless coin when they order a proof coin set from the mint. they can 'think' the mint is not doing its job when they look like they're not. it doesn't help the mints image when they allow their product, that they charge a premium for, to be shipped out to a customer (collector) with spots or any other flaws on them. it just shows incompetency letting the coins ship. how can these get the green light for shipping? where are the inspectors? i believe the mint DOES claim perfection. they tell us that the blanks are highly polished and struck at least twice for greater detail AND inspected for perfection etc. so why shouldn't the collector be upset? that's my point.[/QUOTE]
