<p>[QUOTE=&quot;statequarterguy, post: 772822, member: 21782&quot;]My &quot;remembrance&quot; of them was they looked like banged up junk, so I quit buying them years ago, yet others who have responded here seem to believe they found better coins in them.&nbsp; And, having this mentioned to me, jogged my memory, that yes, there were some &quot;good ones&quot;, yet over all I remember them as junk. I started buying them again in 2005 with the added care taken and the presentation of a new variety of coin, that appeared to be much like a matte proof.&nbsp; Very similar to the modern commemorative program where the mint sells an unc &amp; proof.&nbsp; The unc, however, is produced with the same care and process as a proof, but with a satin finish, thus actually creating a matte proof.&nbsp; In the satin mint set case, I&#039;m saying a new variety was created.&nbsp; I&#039;m saying buy the coin, not the lablel.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
