Proof Set  / AKman, AK 11/15/2009
The set looks okay. Hard to believe that it has not been touched by hands, since there is dirt and lint in with the coins. Kids still like it so give it fair rating.
1994 Proof Set  / AKman, AK 11/12/2009
Proof Set is in okay condition but not as striking as my other proof sets from other sources.
1961 proof set  / Anonymous, AL 10/30/2007
I recived this set the plastic was open and the coins were black and loose in the plastic that they came in. They were not worth the 91 cents that was in there. I returned the same day i recived it. HSN said it came from one of there vendors not them.They said that they have not control over what gets sent out to the customer.I am still waiting on my money back on this item.
BOXES AND CASES  / Anonymous, TN 11/29/2004
Boxes and cases are all worn (used condition). I received 'Ebay' quality. This specific case arrived cracked. Shipping on this and all items were separate but arrived the same day, greatly adding to cost.
1961 Original 5 Coin U.S. Proff Set  / Anonymous, TX 11/25/2004
The two sets that I ordered for gifts were nice,but the brown envelopes that they came in were opened. I am assuming that they were returned items from another customer. I don't have the time to return them and they are not the best to give as gifts if someones else has opened them and returned them to HSN.Also, I think that the shipping and handling charges are too expensive for small items like these coins. I think it is a rip off.
