Over-Graded, but well worth the Money... Jimbo4664, NJ Rating 5/26/2010
This 28 piece Set is handsome, and impressive. The only thing keeping me from giving it a full Five Star rating, is that some of the coins looked over-graded. As an intermediate collector I’ve encountered graded coins with grades that I’ve questioned before. And unfortunately, both Sacagawea coins appeared to have faint scratches on their surface. Additionally, the D Kennedy has some marks along the neck. These probably should have been SP65 - 67 coins. So the more advanced Nit Picking collectors may want to reconsider, but the rest of the set was absolutely flawless. ( And lets not forget this is Limited Edition - Numbered set ) Considering it would cost you as much to have your own set graded, with little chance of getting a SP69 grade on all 28 coins, and it comes with a beautiful Oak display chest, this set is a real bargain. I admit the set may be a little pricy for beginners, but it is definitely worthy of adding to any collection.

2008-D 5 cent not a 2008-D... Anonymous , Rating 1/9/2009
This is an ICG Certified- SP69 Satin Finish Mint Set First Day of Issue #459 of 479. The 2008-P 5C (nickel) has the mint mark P. The 2008-D 5C (nickel-encased and sealed with a hologram by ICG) also has a "P" mintmark! Both bear the same set #459. Beautiful coins, but the set is not complete.
