<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1304123, member: 112&quot;]I have no problem with the experience issue. There are several cases where my experience contradicts commonly held beliefs, and so I go with my experience too. No reason clad shouldn&#039;t either.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, I didn&#039;t ask my question lightly. You see, I&#039;ve known clad for a very long time and I have great deal of respect for him. He knows this, though most of the rest of you probably don&#039;t. The man knows more about modern US coins than just about anybody I&#039;ve ever even heard of. Because of that it&#039;s extremely uncommon that I would disagree with him on that subject. But when I read his comment about PVC in mint packaging, I wasn&#039;t just surprised, I was shocked. </p><p><br /></p><p>That said, because of my own experience and because I collected Mint Sets and Proof Sets for most of my life, I can&#039;t just take his word on such a thing. Thus my question.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only way to definitively answer the question as far as I&#039;m concerned would be to have a test done to see exactly what the the components of the packaging contain. Until that time, it&#039;s still a question. Until now, there was no question in my mind. That&#039;s how much respect I have for the man&#039;s knowledge.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
