Strange Mint Set

Picked up this 1981 Mint set from a local Flea-Market dealer for $7.00. The SBA Dollar is sealed in with the Kennedy Half.

    Pretty cool find. Not bad for $7 considering it has $4.82 face value in coins.

    ive seen plenty where the barrier isn't sealed and the coins fall thru

    The empty space is sealed & the SBA & Kennedy spot is sealed.

    Considering it is a 1981 with all three SBAs, I say $7.00 is a great deal. I'd pay that all day long.

    Why are there 3 SBA's?

    I know there is a type I and type II but usually that is something that does not come out at the same time on purpose?

    Because there're only two Kennedy's silly! image

    Edited: The 1981-P, 1981-D and 1981-S "circulated" strikes were only available in the Mint sets. The -S was also produced in Proof and two varieties exist (blob or filled S and clear S)
