It looks like I have one that the image of Lincoln is more of a frosty image and less defined.

I got an uncirculated set that came with the reverse proof W cent too! I wonder how common this is?

Mine was definitely NOT the wrong pouch. The coin has a frosted background characteristic of the reverse proof coin. Is anyone actually receiving the uncirculated coin?

I just received 35 sets with proof cents instead of uncirculated. Or are they in the wrong pouch? Jeez.

Not the reverse proof. Now I have to return the entire silver set just to get the penny exchanged for the reverse proof. What a pain

LoopholeLyle
From what I have read you are required to return the cent and the COA and the envelope for the cent also, so I would guess that you will not receive credit for the return unless all of the items that were sent with the set are returned. That was reported in a article by Mr. Paul Gilles dated March 29 writing for Coin World.
