<p>[QUOTE="ksproul, post: 586555, member: 16855"]I believe all the coins (cent through dollar) in the regular U.S. uncirculated mint sets started having the satin finish in 2005 (through present). The satin finish is used only in the mint sets, not on the "business strike" coins for circulation. You can identify the satin finish as the coins have a less brilliant, more frosted look to them (sort of like the features on a proof coin, but over the whole coin).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
