1978 United States Mint Set in Original Government Packaging. The 1978 Mint Set contained a total of twelve coins struck at the Philadelphia and Denver Mint facilities. This set also marked the last year of the Eisenhower Dollar. Coins included in the set were arranged with the Philadelphia Mint coins in one plastic packet bordered in blue and the Denver mint coins in a separate packet bordered in red. The coin series represented were P&D Lincoln Cents, P&D Jefferson Nickels, P&D Roosevelt Dimes, P&D Kennedy Half dollars, and the aforementioned P&D Eisenhower Dollars. Packaging for the 1978 Mint Sets remained similar to the size and arrangement set in the prior year. The plastic sleeves of coins were placed between two cardboard inserts within an enveloped marked with the contents. The envelope had printing in the upper right corner stating “U.S. Mint 1978 Uncirculated Coin”.
