I'm curious. Do you mean having 2 pennies in the same set? Or am I just blind and ignorant?

Hi Graceoutcast

The 1970 mint set comes with both the philly cent and the San franciso cent ,, what is unusual is that the set contains an S mint Nickel instead of the philly nickel like it should have .

second picture close up ,, I know the pic is a bit blury but its tough to get a clear shot through the mint cello .

That is a cool error! And will definately bring a premium on ebay. I have seen an auction like this on ebay, but I can't find the completed listing. Very cool!

Hi Mike

There is no actual San Francisco package ,, the only S mint coin that should be in the set is the S mint cent. that cent is included in the philly Mint set pictured above ,, this should be a philly Nickel .

Metalman, no Philly nickels(only Denver and San Fran) or half dollars(Denver only) were minted in 1970.
