Dave H Pillar of the Community United States 1436 Posts	Posted 09/22/2012 10:55 am I recently got a 1976 Bicentenial Mint Set in which the Philadelphia mint coins have an extra dime in the same section of the packaging w/ the Lincoln Cent. Is this a common occurrence and what does it do for the value of the set? Edited by Dave H 09/22/2012 9:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff
