I decided to open two old 1984 Min sets I had for many years and when I opened one of them up I found this large U.S. Mint-PA. Brass Medallion in the set sealed. My question is this a prank from someone at the Mint that year or did they put them in the sets. I have opened many of this 1984 mint sets and never seen this before. Pictured below.

As you can see the medal is dated August 14th 1969 and were special made for packaging but not mint sets
What you have is a "Souvenir" set.

Well someone switched out out then many moons ago. Thanks
I wouldn't complain - that Philly medal may be worth more than that rest of the coins combined

You have what looks to be a souvenir set. However. The sovenier set does not have the red or blue markings.

I stand corrected
They added the red and blue borders some time after 1977.
