[QUOTE="onecenter, post: 7737269, member: 8703"]All of the sets illustrated in the photo are the official mint sets for the period. Specifically, the PVC sleeves used for the sets issued from 1977-1983 are particularly soft. It can be difficult to obtain these sets with unaffected bronze coins. The nickel 5-, 10-, 20-, 50-cent and 1 rand coins can show no traces of PVC damage. The proof sets of the same period contained a silver 1 rand coin instead of the nickel version for circulation.[/QUOTE]
