I bought a 1965 SMS set off ebay unopened and i have no idea why lol. I guess i was trying to get lucky and pull an ultra cameo kennedy (highly doubt i was gonna) or it was cause no one was bidding and it was cheap 
It came in today and every coin was junk accept for the Nickel. The Nickel not only has a DDO (date is doubled) it also has to die cracks? (raised pieces of metal). One piece is small and under jeffersons neck and the other has decent size running in the fields to the left of his bust. The coin IMO should go MS-64 if i get a gift MS-65. Have any of you seen a coin like this? I can take pics but my camera is terrible at close ups

Whomever checked the coins for winners, didn't find any, and then licked the flap.

Does my memory fail me?
Didn't you post a picture of a 1965 SMS that was addressed by the mint and sealed?
If they weren't obviously sealed by the mint then they weren't sealed by the mint.
<< <i>OK ....I see unopened envelope.........!!!!!!!! the light is on now.....!!!!!!!!! >>
Duh!!!! McFly!!!!
They were shipped from the mint unsealed, there are two ways they get sealed... 1) Stored in a humid environment. 2) SLURP!!!

Forgot about those. 3) If someone bought a single set from the mint, the shipping label was slapped on it and the set was shipped sealed.
