Message:: [QUOTE="Excuse_Me, post: 2079278, member: 72422"]I doubt if any one will believe this, but my husband purchased ONE 2011 AMERICAN EAGLE 25TH ANNIVERSARY SILVER 5 COIN SET was charged for ONE and was sent 5 sets. He has never spoke of this before, but said I could mention it now.  He still has All the paperwork here somewhere, with pics also.  He saved the tracking info which clearly shows the weight is too heavy for just one set. He is such an honest man He wrote the US Mint a letter with all the paperwork & pics, and sent them a certified bank check for 12 hundred dollars for the extra 4 sets.  The bank gave him a copy of the check, and also a copy of the cashed check. He never heard a word from the mint after that.  He gave one set to his best friend because he got shut out and could not order one. He saved one to give to our grandson someday, he is his coin buddy and they do coin collecting together. He sold the other 3 on Ebay.  True story you guys/gals are the 1st to hear it... Our grandson was only 3 when they started getting boxes of cents, the 1st time our grandson read the date he read it backwards right to left. So maybe he was dyslectic and doing this helped him.  Or maybe he just did not know how to read a date on a coin? It did not take long to catch on, he knew just what to look for, they saved all the coppers and wheats Canadian or any other non US coins they found in the rolls, and of course the Indian heads. One day he opened a roll and it had ALL Wheats and a bunch of Indian heads too.  He was soo excited, my husband said it was priceless the excitement he showed on his face...[/QUOTE]
