[QUOTE="d.t.menace, post: 1624430, member: 18944"]I would have voted "it depends" if that were an option. I collect mint sets and if I find a set where most of the coins are nice I would keep it intact. Some day, after all of them have been cut up, there will still be collectors of intact sets and I think it is our duty as collectors to pass some of them on for the future numismatists. Having said that, yes I have cut up some of them. If there's one or two nice coins in the set and the rest of them are dogs, I say cut away![/QUOTE]
