<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NumismaticGary, post: 7767197, member: 117114&quot;]Wow that is a detailed response! This is the thing, they came from the mint this way. I can&#039;t tell honestly if they&#039;re getting worse, I hope not. I live in the northeast US and I am aware it has been very humid here lately. They are stored in the same place, in a Rubbermaid container made out of LDPE plastic (no pvc), with silica packs, in proof set boxes, and then finally in their OGP. I store them in an air conditioned room as well with a separate dehumidifier. I really have doubts it&#039;s anything I&#039;m doing unless I&#039;m missing something. I can only think of spending a pretty penny on intercept proof set boxes, and getting a better container to store those in since LDPE is mostly air permeable. When I received my 2020 and the lens fell apart in my hand with basically negative effort (it usually takes some to open a set, and I never intentionally do) is when I started to question quality control and the effect of COVID on the workforce at the mint. I will certainly let you and anyone who&#039;s curious know if the replacements I can find have similar issues however.</p><p><br /></p><p>It will be interesting to see how these sets age and tone if I do end up keeping them when I get replacements.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
