Description: Photos are of actual item. All 5 coins from 1943 are from the Philadelphia Mint. The half, quarter, and dime are 90% silver. The nickel is 35% silver. The penny is zinc coated steel. I am not a coin dealer or expert so please use the photo zoom to evaluate grade of these circulated coins. This is a "matched" year set in that all 5 coins are from a single Mint. If a year set listing on eBay does not specify the Mint location, it likely contains a mix. Each year was different, but in some cases one Mint may have struck over 10 times the number of coins as another Mint! This makes matched sets that much more interesting. Matched sets from a single Mint (e.g., San Francisco, Denver, Philadelphia) can simplify gift giving because you know what to give next time - a matched set from one of the other Mints! Or start a collection such as all the sets from the 50's, the 60's, the WWII years, your high-school years - or just the sets from the Mint nearest your home, where you grew up, and so on! Note: the 1943 coin sets are interesting in that it is the only year where both the nickel and penny are unusual; the nickel had silver content (only from 1942-1945) and the penny had steel content (only in 1943). Of course these variations were due to the war effort. The economy plastic coin holder does not have a protective case and may have some small scratches, scuffs, and tiny air bubbles - but nothing egregious. The coins can be removed and placed in a fancier holder such as one with oak trim and so on. If giving this as a gift, this holder separates into two halves and you can insert personalized messages, small photographs, or whatever. While the holder has a frosted texture, your insert will be quite viewable as illustrated in the last two photos. I will send this USPS First Class with tracking number supplied. I have a few other coin listings and will combine shipping with additional items paid on the same invoice; a 2nd coin set adds about 50 cents.
