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.

If the best BU coin you can find just happens 2 come from a Mint set.... then so be it! ...... Report this Post to the Staff

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