<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 16484, member: 112&quot;]Contrary to what you might think - there are quite a few out there that were never opened.

There&#039;s just something irresistable about the chance of making a &quot;real find&quot;. And it doesn&#039;t matter if somebody tells them that the envelopes these sets come in can be and are being manufactured today - and then re-sealed and sold as unopened sets. Why I&#039;ve even seen modern manufactured pliofilm cases with circulated coins in them being sold as Mint sets and Proof sets. When it comes to the older sets - you better know what you&#039;re looking at before you buy it&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
