<p>[QUOTE=&quot;7Jags, post: 8250660, member: 78719&quot;]Ah thanks Paddy. I really had to laugh at myself for getting it as the only difference&nbsp; from the usual sets with English labels and descriptions is the packaging.</p><p><br /></p><p>As a side note, quite a large percentage of the 1982 sets came with an &quot;error&quot; on the fineness of the 5 Balboa which should be &quot;Ley 0.500&quot; but instead evidently utilised the fineness &quot;Ley 0.925&quot;. In my experience the sort of error mule reverse is not all that much scarcer than the ordinary piece. An informal survey would be about 30-40% of the sets come with the muled reverse on this 5 Balboas.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I haven&#039;t lost the interest of the reader, I am still looking for the packaging variant of the 1984 set with only 8 coins in it and was issued that way without the 20 Balboa. It is listed in Krause in additional to the usual 9 coin set.</p><p>So for the Panama sets 1975 through 1984 the Franklin Mint according to Krause issued both the 8 coin sets and 9 coin sets. The 1985 sets came only in the 8 coin format even though a proof 20 Balboa was made for 1985.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
