Are the silver quarter only sets any better? Every full silver proof set I saw at the LCS today had marked quarters, to varying degrees.

I received 4 sets last week and they are all near perfect. One set has some hazing on the half and cent but otherwise perfect. I just checked them again at every possible angle in bright light and no lines.

I've never returned anything to the Mint but am close to doing so. If you return something are you responsible for covering return shipping and then the subsequent $4.95 to re-ship if you don't just get a refund?

Send your shipping receipt to the same address as the returns, but address it "Novitex Claims". Write the order number and your return address on the receipt. They'll reimburse you for the shipping and insurance. You'd think they'd credit your charge card, but they send a check. The replacement ships for free.

I got just 1 set and it is weird that at one angle the lines are completely invisible and another angle they are very prominent on all 5 quarters. But I am not sending it back. When you look at it directly you can't tell. That is good enough for me. They aren't getting graded anyway.

I have the same type of set and I'm keeping mine. Who knows what's down the road for collectors of this mint set... 50 years from now, some collectors may want these 'errors' for their collections.

Just received my sets about 15 min's ago.

Made the call.

Re-packed and I will be shipping them out for replacement tomorrow.

My quarters also have the said lines.

The rest of the coins look decent though. A tiny little non-cameo like speck on Coolidge's face, though.

Is it even worth it at this point to send them back? (I'm probably not gonna grade, slab, or sell these. They are simply for personal enjoyment.)

Uh oh. Take a look at the reeded edge of my half dollar.

Does this look like a coin case issue or a coin issue? This damage big enough to warrant a new set?

Edit:

Actually, it seems that all of the quarters have this thing too. I'm kinda new to this, so is this anything to be concerned about?

Edit2: Actually, I'm quite baffled by this. Almost all of the coins seem to exhibit this. Perhaps it's a seating for the coins so they don't move around?

That looks like the case from that pic. Not sure though.

Waiting for my replacements to get here.
