<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 143090, member: 66&quot;]1.&nbsp; One holder is P one is D.&nbsp; This is also the last year for the double mint set so there should be two coins of each denomination from each mint, a total of 20 coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. <b>NO!</b>&nbsp; From the one picture you posted it appears they have standard mintset toning.&nbsp; This toning tends to be highly desired and will ususlly cammand a premium.</p><p><br /></p><p>3.&nbsp; I would not do that.&nbsp; Right now you have a COMPLETLY original mint set, something that is becoming almost impossible to find nowadays.&nbsp; If you removed the coins and put them back in it would be noticable which would result in some questioning about whether or not the set is original or if it had been cherrypicked and lower grade coins inserted.&nbsp; Of course if you try to sell the set you will have the problem that many potential buyers will want to take the coins out of the holder to see the back because they are looking for coins they can send in.&nbsp; But now the set will show the results of the inspection and no longer be as original as it was.&nbsp; (Since the mint set toning is desired some dealers will remove choice coins from a set slab and sell them&nbsp; and replace the coin in the set with a lesser piece and then store it in a warm place to get that coin to acquire &quot;mint set toning&quot; so they can set IT for a premium.&nbsp; There are more coins out there with &quot;Original mint set toning&quot; than were ever issued in the mint sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>4.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know.&nbsp; Personally I would say no but I&#039;m biased.&nbsp; I hate all grading services and prefer raw coins.&nbsp; Plus I dislike seeing the destruction of original sets simply for matters of greed.&nbsp; But if some of the coins are truly superb you would make more if they are slabbed.&nbsp; On the other hand, if they DON&#039;T come back with that top grade you now have a no longer original set and considering the money you will have spent on the grading your final net will be LESS than what it would have been if you just sold the set.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
