The mint is probably having the sets made offshore by sending rolls out to be packaged. We need a COTY club started where only nice sets are sold. Everybody out for the easy buck. Soon we won't be able to tell a RCM coin from counterfeits. Both substandard.

The 2010 sets were horrible also. I bought several 2011 sets to give as gifts. They sure show gouges, cuts and nicks. A far cry from what they used to give in these sets.

Yeah I've been noticing a lot of " bag marks " in mint sets in the last couple of years as well.

To the RCM..... come on guys lets see a little pride in your work.

It's not "PL", it's an UNC set. That terminology more of less gives the mint justification to seal crappy looking business strike coins into crappy, overpriced UNC sets. Good for the bottom line at the mint. Some people may complain and want a new set, most will just be disappointed and leave it at that.

Let's not quibble over nomenclature.

Maybe we can blend these these terms together and agree on a simplification?

The 2011 BS Set.

Yes... Bright and Shiny Set ... what did you think I could possibly mean?

The 2010 sets were horrible also ? I didn't see that with my 2010 sets, thought they were quite nice.
