Was looking for previous posts regarding my question and didn't find any... so here goes... Is there a web site or resource that gives specific information regarding the Mint's annual uncirculated "mint" sets.. specifically what coins are in each year? For example, I have mint sets from 1968 to the early 1980's and was just looking at the 1968 set and noticed that the sleeve containing the Philadelphia/San Fransisco coins has 2 Lincoln Pennies BUT both of them are from San Fransisco? I thought there should be a penny from each of the mints? Also, the nickel is from the San Fransisco mint, while the remaining coins- the dime, quarter, and half dollar- are all from Philadelphia. I doubt I'm lucky enough to have an oddity with the 2 Lincoln Pennies from San Fransisco, but it has me wondering how can I find what coins are from what mints from each of the sets over the years? Thanks for any and all help!!
not sure, but i'm almost positive one of the cents is supposed to be a Philadelphia (no mint mark) and the other a San Francisco (S mint mark). I think the Nickel is correct as an S mint mark. Also, I didn't think there was a half dollar in the '68 set?? Have a pic of the entire set??
I apologize, the Philadelphia/San Fran pack doesn't have a half dollar, but I agree that the pennies should be one of each, you can see from the pic they both have an "s" mintmark?
Even certified coins have mistakes, I have found 1919D unc. Standing Liberty Qt., in a slab, that turned out to be 1919 unc. The dealer at the coin show was upset. But others have had the same findings. Oh, well. -O)
The '68 mint sets are notable for several errors. 2 S cents isn't especially common if memory serves.
