1969 Uncirculated Mint set with 2 D dimes

[CladSmoke]

Hello everyone. I purchased a 1969 UC set from a coin shop today for my Dansco album and while cutting out the coins I found I have a 1969-D dime in the blue Philly package. Has anyone ever heard of such a thing?

Have you cut it out yet?

^^^^^^^^ This... If there was any value as an error you killed that when you cut the set apart. If ALL the coins are still together in the plastic it might have some extra value simply because that's not supposed to happen. I assumed those sets were packaged at the various mints though and I can't imagine how that would happen. There would be no reason for a D mint coin to be in the bin at the Philadelphia mint. Unless I'm wrong about how they get packaged when the sets are made up.

It's considered a packaging error and not worth more than a normal set. I had a mint set with two no mint mark dimes and no D mint mark dime.

Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately I had already cut it out when I found the extra D dime.
