I have a few Unopened Mints set that I bought years ago. Should I open them? Which one should I open and Why? Here are the years I have 1948, 1952, 1953, 1954, and 1955.
I think I will open 1 of them for new years, let me know what you guys and gals think

    If I were you, I'd open them all! I hate to say this but when I see "unopened mint sets" and "unopened proof sets" on ebay, I think scam.

    Jason, some were bought on ebay but those I already opened and believe it or not were fine nice looking coins. These I bought from a well known dealer that I trust.

    Open em up and enjoy them. Don't do you much good sitting in an envelope.

    I bought a 1964 proof set, waited a while and then opened it only to find gum on the half, yes gum.
    I would open them all.

    What is money, in reality, but dirty pieces of paper and metal upon which privilege is stamped?

    If you're not going to open them up you may as well own stocks instead of coins.

    Open them! I just bought a couple of double mint sets that haven't arrived yet. I'm bustin' those suckers up if they're worthy.
