Hello, I regretfully say that I have cut up a set in a envelope and finishes seemed to be unique. Compared to the rest of my coins. However here is a picture.
I hope viewers understand how hard it was and how many tries it took to get this picture. The coin is in a 2x2 and inside that 2x2 is still sealed neatly trimmed 4 sided, unopened plastic seal from 5 coin set. I have all 5 coins.
I cut 50% of the seal around all 4 sides, then over months I've looked them over with puzzlement.
Thanks to Daniel's videos, and coin opps interesting collections.
Here is something I wish I studied more before I cut the set.

This is a normal 1964 Proof set that was cut out of its original package and carded with staples in these 2x2s I sell them like this all the time.
