Description
Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible
import numpy as np
series1 = pd.Series(['hi', np.nan, 'bye'])
series1.to_pickle('tmp/mystery_series.pkl')
series2 = pd.read_pickle('tmp/mystery_series.pkl')
print(series1.isin({np.nan}))
print(series2.isin({np.nan}))Problem description
Saving the file (via pickle in example above, but also w msgpack) and then loading it again changes the dtype of the nans slightly in series with object type so that they no longer evaluate to True when checking if in set of np.nan, whereas before they did
Still evaluate to True for series2.isnull()
Expected Output
Output of pd.show_versions()
