Minnesota-Collection-Hoard-Proof-Sets-Seeking-Info-On

Seeking any info on Minnesota Collection or Hoard Proof Sets. I figure just a marketing ploy since they claim to be mint sealed sets. I did see that ICG graded a 1955 cent and nickel as PR68 with Minnesota Hoard on labels. Just picked up 2 sets off ebay and figure I couldn't lose for the price.

Marketing ploy or not, I'm happy. They arrived today. I paid $38.45 for two 1956 Proof sets. As it turned out, one was pictured as a 1955 and arrived as such. Sets were sealed in rigid plastic and a plastic bag. I had to steam the original envelopes open. (I know the controversy over originally mint sealed or not)
