[QUOTE="Clutch Cargo, post: 191293, member: 7401"][b]Unusual find[/b] Speaking of grading, I was looking at some coins I had picked up years ago, cant remember where, that seem to be unusual. It is a five coin set encapsulated in those Whitman 'proof' holders. But instead of being all the same year, these are different years. There is a 1942 Walking Liberty, a 1932 Quarter, a 1940 dime, a 1943 nickle (that seems to be the 43/42 type), and a 1943s penny. Anyway, they all look spanking new, probably proof or uncirculated. There isn't a smudge or a scratch on any of them, although the quarter does not seem to be as mirror like as the others. I am trying to figure out how to post a picture. I dont want to take it up to the local coin dealer, cause I find it hard to trust their honest judgement, if you know what I mean. Does anybody know if Whitman made sets like these normally, or is this unusual.[/QUOTE]
