Mint set question for sets from 56-64

I am in the process of selling off part of my Dad's collection left to me 10 years ago.
I've run across a small run of mint sets from 1956 - 1964. They are all single sets, Phillie mint only.

My question is, did the mint issue single sets in the years 56-64? I had the impression that all mint sets had both P & D sets. The various on-line value guides quote prices for doubles but not singles.

Thanks in advance for any info.....Leo

    I do not believe the Mint issued anything but the full sets , P & D and S

    The question should be asked: "Are these Proof Sets?" as it sounds as if you are describing a Proof Set.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    You may have proof sets, you may have broken up mint sets and you may have after market year sets. Images would help.

    proof sets look like this

    they have a silver emblem/paper card that says Philadelphia mint - but they are proof sets
