This is a packaging, not minting error. No different than the other day, I picked up a perfectly sealed, nearly empty, can of Manwich.

Since anyone can duplicate it with relatively simple equipment, it shouldn't carry a premium.

Shouldn't and doesn't are different matters, tho. I'd write a big story about how this is a super rare item, none other reported, will ship with original packaging, only a few in history, etc, and start it on ebay for $100 or so, and see if you can find a fish.

I get what you're saying, although I didn't claim it was a minting error, I simply said it was clearly a mint error. I asked the CCCS guy if he'd certify the set and he said that for collectors of these, it's very easy to determine legitimate packaging. That said, I would imagine that it wouldn't be too hard to duplicate, so I sure hope he's right. I'd still like to get it certified, somehow.
