This one, plucked from a mint bag, was likely not. A lovely example, and in a grade usually reserved for normal business strikes. https://www.PCGS.com/cert/37951197 I actually thought they were a bit tough on this one, aside from the usual weak strike from 1c being struck on nickel 10c, this one looks like a MS-66 in hand.
