Coindude Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Bobby, I hope I'm wrong for your sake, but I've seen a good many proof sets in the OGP, and that just looks like haze on the half, quarter and dime. Let me know how it turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acan451 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 (edited) Hi Everyone I Won all these for under $12.00, Now I don't know allot about this kind of mint set. I am hoping I did well though. each set with a A "S"penny & nickel 1968,1969,1970 and 1971. Alan Edited May 29, 2011 by acan451 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsshog40 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I may be wrong here Alan, but I think all the sets you bought were actually minted at the San Fransisco Mint. The mintmark wasn't put on them due to earlier coin hoarding in which people were collecting coins by mintmark for complete sets. To help get the coins back into circulation, the mintmark was not added so there would be no certain demand for any of the coins, but one I guess. To hep the population of the Lincoln cent better, two were put into the set and I guess one needed to have a mintmark to be able to include two coins of the same denomination in the same set. I can't say I'm completely right, but I think some of it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsshog40 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Thanks Bobby Alan Btw Alan, the full sets for these run about $8 each, that's with the Denver half. So 3 sets for $12 is $4 ea. I'd say you paid the going rate my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acan451 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Like I said I ave never bought this kind of coin, and now I have learned to look for the Denver mint as well Thanks Bobby Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

physics-fan3.14 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 im pretty mad i didnt get this coin.. 1955 Franklin along with a bunch of others that dude was sellin at the time. missed a lot of top shelf stuff im thinking to myself right now. The coin is almost certainly not FBL, and it isn't that attractive. The buyer paid a fair price, but you didn't miss anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKW Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Just picked this up today for a new set. Just haven't decided yet if it's going to be a CWT set or a set relating to / honoring my home state of NJ. Either way it fits in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ModCrewman-migration Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Beautiful coin Lee. I have high hopes for my 1957 (posted on the previous page) submitted ATS last week as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbesaar Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Proof IHC's are beautiful - and that 1873 is no exception. Thanks for sharing, Dean. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Something new - and I have nothing like this in my collection. A little background on the date, a friend recently had this date certified at Sacramento - although it was a VF 35 - it was a very rare die variety - the Curly Base 2. I was very attracted to the series - and although I am not a variety collector - I can easily see why some are. Needless to say - here's my newp: Obviously, the holder has the lines - not the coin.
