I think it is just an editing error on the Coins magazine for the 2011-12 satin coins. Email them and see what they say?

So "uncirculated" set coins are different than business strikes. Whether the numismatic community wants to make a special distinction isn't yet clear.
Actually, mist set coins were different long before the 2005 satin fiasco, since 1968 I believe. The difference being a greater striking force.

And the "difference" wasn't recognized THEN by most collectors, nor should it be now, in my opinion.
If the best BU coin you can find just happens 2 come from a Mint set.... then so be it! ......

I agree. The difference created by the satin finish was more intentional and noticeable.
