<p>[QUOTE=&quot;midtncoin, post: 2903815, member: 89569&quot;]Got a call from my LCS this morning stating that a customer had brought in an 83D souvenir set.&nbsp; They knew I&#039;d been trying to get the four sets from 82/83 so I went by at lunch and picked it up.&nbsp; 1 down and 3 to go.&nbsp; But it got me to thinking.&nbsp; Why were there no mint sets produced in those years?&nbsp; I&#039;ve never read an actual explanation.&nbsp; The only things I can think of that were going on numismatically during that time was the switch from copper to zinc in the cents and the resumption of the commemorative program.&nbsp; But I can&#039;t imagine either of those having any sway on the mint set program.&nbsp; Is there a definitive answer for their absence?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
