The amount of discount that a buyer gets from the seller's initial asking price says nothing about how good of a deal it is. What counts is the...
I've probably seen a couple of dozen such sets over a 30 year period, but, as Doug said, they are quite scarce. The cellophane and old style...
The short answer is, it depends. Many buyers are enamored with the idea of buying such sets in their original packaging and will pay strong...
Even if it would help - and I doubt that it would make enough difference -I think the cost of conservation and postage would be more than the coin...

Doctoring a coin is not the same as counterfeiting one. The latter is against the law, while the former is not.
I agree. And especially nice coins will often, justifiably, sell for higher prices via a venue like Heritage, where many bidders are able to view...
There are many reasons why a coin might sell for more (or less) via one venue, as compared to another. Among them - as you correctly pointed out...
Why do you assume that the items "realize their true value" on Ebay, as opposed to other venues? I have seen many sales where coins brought much...
