<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 24456, member: 68&quot;]There has been very little said by the mint over the years about this subject.&nbsp; What is known is that a number of these are destroyed at the end of at least some years.&nbsp; It&#039;s also known that at least some sets have been busted up over the years.&nbsp; There was a statement once that damaged and defective sets are destroyed but it&#039;s hard to know who makes the determination of what constitute damage or defect.&nbsp; Some orders are returned complete so it&#039;s difficult to believe that these are all destroyed but some returned sets are obviously highly defective and it seems improbable they just reship all the returns.&nbsp; My guess is that someone looks at returns and culls out &quot;unsaleable&quot; ones.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
