There are dozens of great doubled dies in 60's proof sets but, there are also many things to watch out for regarding sealed sets.
There are many re-sealed sets which have been searched and there are counterfeit envelopes that contain sets that have been searched.
Generally people may pay around $5 over bid for these sets if sealed that seems fair. But having searched hundreds of these sets generally when you have a man walk in with say 100 sealed sets any random search of the first few, the middle few and the last will tell you whats in all of them - not always but that has been my experience.
As with circ. wheat rolls that have an Indian cent on the end I would not trust any on ebay any longer as being genuine and able to produce a gem or other variety.
If at a show where the original buyer bought them back in the 60's would certainly offer the best chance at original type items.
