<p>[QUOTE="coindudeonebay, post: 2144562, member: 20079"]Joe, when you say "unopened" I'm sure you mean they were never opened by you. The 66 and 67 SMS holders are easy to crack open and swap coins out of and then reseal. It's done all the time. So for anyone to tout that any SMS set is sealed and never been opened is, to say it nicely, not true. The only way to guarantee an SMS set to be sealed is to purchase a sealed box of these sets. I would venture to say that even the 65's you see that say they're unopened were sealed post box opening to try and get part of the premium back for sets that didn't quite make the quality of what they wanted. You see the 65's were not sealed prior to placing in the boxes. On a rare occasion there are single 65's which were sealed but these are the ones that customers purchased singly and were shipped with the envelope as the mailing envelope. These are easy to discern as there will be a shipping label on the package. I hope this made sense.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
