Hi, as the title says I'm wondering if an Uncirculated Set entry could be added for the 1998 Bass and Flinders 50c to distinguish it from regular circulating coins. There were 74,108 sets minted according to Australian Coins and Banknotes 17th Edn 2010.

Are they of a different condition or process?

Cita: "Oklahoman" Are they of a different condition or process?Yes, the uncirculated coins are treated with a special lacqeur, the production dies have special attention paid to them and the blanks are fed into the press at a lower feed rate. They are also presented in a fold out. Here's one with the coin in question:
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1998-AUSTRALIAN-MINT-COIN-SET-BASS-FLINDERS/391116410146?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20140106155344%26meid%3D59d1efa5964c46ce9420c9d3b1ef1374%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D382214599020&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851
They're essentially proof sets for people who can't afford proof sets (like me).
