carnold744 Valued Member United States 415 Posts	Posted 10/05/2015 9:08 pm I got these coins from the bank I work at and I'm just curious if they are from a mint set. At first I thought they were proofs but they are not S mints. With the mirror effect that I showed in the pics next to the 10 dollar bill I'm thinking mint set. Would that be correct?

It doesn't mean they came from a mint set. In fact a mint set coin is the same as a coin buisness strike coin. It was just put in the case before it got thrown around to all the banks and put in rolls. Report this Post to the Staff
shadz Pillar of the Community 1325 Posts	Posted 10/05/2015 10:16 pm Someone probably bought rolls of them and they are just getting out of the rolls and sent around. I recall some rather shiny Jefferson Pre$ recently in a box. It could be the CRHers have actually made a change for the better and the FRB have had to begin releasing some of those billions that they have stockpiled of the "golden" dollars that nobody was wanting before.

Though in your first picture the Johnson and Polk look anything but mirror-like. In fact they look plated or painted compared to the Adams. Probably just the lighting. Report this Post to the Staff

shadz Pillar of the Community 1325 Posts	Posted 10/06/2015 01:14 am Right now I am more interested in a remote with a "TOOLS" function so I don't have to go get them myself from the garage than the coins! But I can see the reflections in the 2 new pics as well. Report this Post to the Staff
GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 10/06/2015 07:59 am Mint sets from 2005 through 2010 were satin finish coins. Some of the mint sets seem more satin than others, but I have not seen any as mirrored as those look ...from satin mint sets. Report this Post to the Staff
