<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 2032750, member: 66"]Yes they are an "error" but a packaging error not a mint error. And yes they shouldn't get through quality control, but that just tells you the QC isn't as high as it should be (For one thing the QC is applied mostly to the coins not the packaging. Premium value pretty much zilch and over time the foreign material could actually damage the coins and reduce the value.</p><p><br /></p><p>As to the "Breaking up" of the sets, the holders are not sealed and can be opened and closed with no damage to the holder or any trace that the set was opened. Sure you can open up and disburse a silver set and in theory cause the surroundin sets to increase in value, but you can also take an empty holder put the coins back in it and voila an new "original" set that can't be told from one straight from the mint. So opening the holder to remove potentially damaging material and the reclosing it could be considered a smart move.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
