Those are cut out of US Mint Uncirculated sets. Good way to get recent uncirculated dates.


I hope to get more

I agree
These are from mint sets.

A very good way to pick up quality coins.

Actually, just a good way to pick-up MS coins. Mint set coins are no guarantee of quality. I have actually found very few mint set coins that were of good enough quality for my collection.

They are probably of the same average quality as common business strikes; however, because they are trapped in mint cello, they have been spared the indignity of circulation. It's hard to find a source for uncirculated Memorials other than this short of buying BU rolls and looking through them or hoping to get lucky searching boxes.

For an Australian member, getting these coins is a big challenge already.
Congratulation.

to me they are only a proven provenance that they are UNC
even some shown have carbon spots, coin hits etc.

you said it right
Gem or choice uncirculated coins will be in the hands of dealers and hold a premium
