<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Thelionwarrior, post: 2032704, member: 39179&quot;]I guess you&#039;re not understanding why I like these so much. These are out of silver proof sets. Yes they are in fact an error from the mint because those things are not supposed to be in there. The mint let them through and sent them on so yes in fact it is an error. The mints quality control are not supposed to let them come through like that. If you don&#039;t like them thats fine but I do and am curious what these things are. Finding out more on what they are will help to know if they are stuck to the coin without even opening the casings. I let the dealers who lack the appreciation of silver proof sets continue to break there&#039;s open and lower the mintage of these sets. As a collector I think telling someone to break these sets open is absurd and that these sets should stay together exactly how they came. I have no idea why dealers seem to think it is more apealling to break these sets open and try to sell them as graded coins. This to me ruins the set completely. I could care less on the grade of these coins in the sets. But if in fact that is a piece of metal then there would be a scratch if it was removed. That scratch would be an error on the mints part. and you would have proof in this case of what exactly caused it. To me that is pretty cool. Whether or not anyone else thinks so is up to each person. I dont look to sell these anyways so value isn&#039;t as important to me as the story is behind these mistakes. But doesn&#039;t seem like anyone who has seen this can give me an answer as to what these are yet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
