The standard set has a value of about $6
They came with an extra cent from the San Fran Mint, not an extra nickel. You may have had a real odd ball on your hands if it were a extra nickel as you said in your original post. You had me excited for you.
Are you still saying that the nickel in the "P" set has an "S" instead of nothing. That would be next to impossible and could make the set very rare. Make sure the seal hasn't been tampered with or it isn't a blob instead of a clear "S".

Lureuin i have taken a photo which will show the "S" well enough to tell what it is if you can tell me how to attach it.

At the top of the remarks box is a string of icons. The last one is for pictures.
Start a reply, click on the camera, browse your pictures and then attach it.
If you have an oddball there is no way to know the value, though it could be quite high.

i can't get the picture to up load as a file, it uploads for me to see and nothing else, it is not real clear, you can see the blue in the Philly pack and the s is not real clear.

Beginning in 1968 proof sets were made in San Francisco and bear an "S" mint mark. I too would love to see a pic of your coin. There were no S mint mark nickels made in San Fran (except proofs) in 1969, although there was a S uncirculated cent. As others stated, click on reply to this; on the right click on the small camera; under 'upload an image', click brouse and locate the pic file on your PC; The pic location should appear in that upload image box; then click the add button; it should appear; then click on 'Add Reply' at the bottom right of the reply box. Let's see it even if it's fuzzy. If you have an uncirculated or proof coin in your set, it's a rarity and probably worth a lot if the pack was not tampered with. Thanks.

Guys, isn't 1969 one of the years (along with 1968 and 1970) that Philidelphia did not produce a circulating nickel? Weren't the circualting nickels only produced in Denver and San Francisco those years? The proofs also came from San Francisco, but I am pretty sure that the circulating nickels also did. The mint was going through a lot of changes back then. It was still weaning itself off of silver (with the half dollars at 40%). From 1965 through 1967, no mint marks were used, which is a shame, because if they had been used we would have had the only circulating coins with a W mint mark (West Point produced some coins for circulation those years).
