Although these were mostly discovered outside of Mint Sets, there’s always a possibility they might be found in one! 1974-D Doubled Die Obverse Half Dollar: Look for strong doubling on “IN GOD WE TRUST” and the date. Wide Quality Variation: As with other Mint Sets, coins were pulled from regular production runs, resulting in significant quality variation. Original Packaging: Two pliofilm flat packs: Red-edged pack: Denver Mint coins. Blue-edged pack: Philadelphia and San Francisco Mint coins.
