[QUOTE="dreamer94, post: 164151, member: 6449"]I found a previous post from 2004 asking this question, but it was never answered. What years did the US Mint include certificates in proof sets? I know that the pre-1965 proof sets included a piece of paper that weren't COA's, but rather cranky ("Don't call us, we'll call you") statements that they wouldn't replace any discolored coins. I don't know exactly when these started. The first of my sets that has an inserted statement was 1958 (see attached). The statement got a bit more cranky in 1961 (see attached). After 1964, the next set to have an insert was 1986 which was not a COA, but simply a set of specifications for the set (see attached). The first set in which I see a true COA was 1990 (see attached). So, 1. Does anyone know what year the pre-1965 proof sets started to contain an inserted statement? 2. Am I correct that inserts did not appear after 1965 until 1986 and that they were not truly COA's until 1990?[/QUOTE]
