<p>[QUOTE="cladking, post: 248538, member: 68"]I don't think the mint sets made since 1960 are heavily cherry picked. Oh sure, some specific dates are cherry picked. You're not as likely to find nice cameo SMS's for instance as you used to be but they were always quite scarce. There is a little cherry picking done on Ikes and varieties as well. It's getting almost impossible to find a small date '70 cent for instance. Mint sets tend to go from collectors to big wholesalers who destroy them to make denominational sets so the ones on the market just aren't all thaty picked over.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
