    I found an interesting anomaly in pricing, and wanted to know if anyone here knows why.

    I picked up at WESPNEX on Friday a 1995 3 coin Civil war proof set (clad half, silver dollar, 5$ gold) for $360, which is about Bid (maybe a little over).

    However, the Greysheet price for the two coin set is much higher than a common date (I have (bid) $65 for the two coin proof, and $55 for the silver dollar alone (proof).

    I don't understand why the premium for the dollar and 2 coin sets does not also translate into a premium for the three coin set (at least what in would be worth over the gold coin alone)?

    Thanks for your help.

    Well if you paid a fair price for the 3 coin set at lets say $360, and the two coin set's value is $65, then the 1/10 oz $5 gold coin is valued at $295.

    A bullion 1/10th oz $5 gold coin is currently selling at approx. $155. Therefore, the premium for Gold coin/ 3 coin set must be $140. Seems to me, to be a pretty large premium since the regular 1/10th oz $5 gold coin includes an $18 premium over spot.

    PS I have the 1995 Civil War Battlefields coins in both the two coin set and a PF69 Silver Dollar.
