    That is different. I've never seen a packaging error like that.

    One set seems to be missing a cent and a nickel, and the other has an extra cent and is missing a nickel. (Correct?).

    There were no half dollars minted in Philadelphia for circulation that year so you aren't missing any silver.

    That is pretty cool. The year I graduated from high school. I remember that year very well😊. 1969 was good for crazyhounddog.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    You mean none minted in Philly? Because there appear to be Denver '69 halves...

    No missing nickel, just the penny which appears in the other mint set.

    Yes, you are correct.

    The blue pack is for Philadelphia and San Francisco combined. I believe that SF struck nickels and cents for circulation that year. I had to look it up just now to remind myself - no Philadelphia nickels that year, so just the S would be in that pack.
