<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2947783, member: 112&quot;]Sorry, but that is not a Special Mint Set. The &#039;65 Special Mint Set was only sold in the hard plastic holders - not in the pliofilm flat packs.</p><p><br /></p><p>What that is is a 1965 Souvenir Set. They were sold at the mint, at the Mint&#039;s gift shop. As such they are somewhat scarce, much more so than the &#039;65 Special Mint Sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>In regard to value, only somebody like me, who used to specialize in collecting such things, would pay much of a premium for them. Or, you could get lucky and find somebody who didn&#039;t know any better that might over-pay.</p><p><br /></p><p>If it were me and I was buying it, I&#039;d never pay over $20 for it and probably less.</p><p><br /></p><p>edited to add - The coins in these sets were assembled from the coins minted for use in circulation for that year. This is true of all Souvenir Sets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
