<p>[QUOTE="Atarian, post: 2014076, member: 34285"]It's true the mint sets are at just about give away prices. It's also true that most bought sight unseen in lots (in e-Bay or wherever) are pretty picked over - at least in my experience. I might add it's hard to store several hundred 1973 to 1978 mint sets, and proof sets are worse!</p><p><br /></p><p>On a slightly different note I don't think the mint itself cared about mint sets back then - almost like it was something they had to do but didn't really want to. Like eating spinach I guess. I make this statement based upon the quality of the coins, especially the dollars. I could be wrong.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
