clembo Valued Member United States 442 Posts	Posted 12/24/2008 10:35 am Yes, One of the people we deal with at work got one. I believe it was a Presidential dollar in a 2008 set. Report this Post to the Staff

xshift Pillar of the Community United States 2669 Posts	Posted 12/24/2008 10:39 am How bizarre.. is that a rare occurrence? I was going to liberate the rest of the coins, but I think I'll keep it intact.. it's kind of funny. Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 12/24/2008 1:43 pm A missing coin, or an extra coin, coins reverse up, or a coin missing and having two of another are all just packaging errors and have nothing to do with the mint at all. (The packaging is contracted out, not something donw by the mint itself.) Such packaging errors are uncommon but not rare and they are worth very little as most people would rather have a perfect set. Report this Post to the Staff
Swampfox New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 12/26/2008 06:41 am My 1981 set has the SBA Dollar sealed in with the Kennedy half dollar. The slot where the SBA is missing is sealed and not broken. This is indeed a packaging error. Report this Post to the Staff
neversuited1 Pillar of the Community United States 1121 Posts	Posted 12/26/2008 10:14 am Interesting...Packaging is contracted out? Anyone know the quality control standards? I assume they are fairly high. What would you say the average Unc Mint Set coins grade? MS62/63? Report this Post to the Staff
