I have been task to sell a collection of US Mint products. A lot of them are still in box and I do not know what in the box. I believe the US Mint product # is on the side of the box for example one box has GC2. Is there a place I can fins out what this product is?
Below are the product # I am looking for

GC3

    @calgolddiver thanks. I think most of mine are going to be before 2016.

    The UXX numbers are annual Mint Sets XX is the year.

    I will have to do more resarch to figure the rest of them

    @djm I have been trying to research stuff on eBay and Google but the above listed is stuff that I have not yet found what the are I believe some are $25 mint bags of state quarters or national parks quarters but not 100% for sue.

    If that is the case it will be a huge amount of work for (almost) nothing. As I understand it, some early state quarters bags have some value but for most you will probably struggle to make any profit above face value unless you can find a retail buyer locally, and even then it will be minimal.

    It's almost impossible to match old US Mint catalog numbers to a product.

    As djm points out, the UXX are annual uncirculated sets.

    Shake the GC/YT/YW/SP boxes. If you hear coins sliding around inside, chances are good they're $25 ATB quarter bags.

    Here's my guess.

    SPX: Hot Springs. YTX: Yosemite. YWX: Yellowstone. GCX: Grand Canyon.

    XX2 is from Philly, XX3 is from Denver. (XX1 were 2 roll sets.)

    you can weight them too. I would call the mint direct, they can tell you as well. It looks like they are prior to 2015 probable 2014

    Best place to buy !

    It may be apostasy, but for very modern mint stuff, why not just open them? You are unlikely to get a premium for sealed boxes on most of those things. For a lot of them, you'll get less. I mean, how many of you would buy a silver eagle that you didn't know if it had milk spots or not?

    Have you tried calling the mint?
