I was buying a bunch of mint sets from my LCS and came across this KHD in the 1993 uncirculated mint set with what I am assuming is a grease strike. Sorry about the quality of the picture, I only had my phone to use this weekend when I took the shot. I found this interesting to look at, so I put it in my book. I can always substitute later if I need to.
What do you experts think?
Thanks,
Jon

Looks like those devices were pretty much filled and even some of the stars were affected. The last device if it is wider would be the nail in the coffin on this one if the devices are wider than normal. (It was probably the only device that was not completely full.

Thanks guys for the quick responses! I had to look up what was meant by "devices".
So, should I keep this as an "uncirculated" example in my Dansco or should I find another one without this error? Or, is
it just personal preference?

Probably would not be a premium for it. But it might be something to show to a new collector as an educational piece.

I agree that it is a keeper for the educational value, even if not a huge premium over face value.

Not sure if anyone is interested in a close up of the area, but here it is. Also, there is no damage on the obverse.
