<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom B, post: 1518890, member: 11854&quot;]DO NOT BID!!! I realize this seems a rather extreme answer, but a <i>genuine US Mint Set </i>from 1947 will contain two examples of each coin produced at each mint. Further, each coin will be mint state and the coins from each mint will be together within a cardboard page. These pages then had a piece of paper glued onto them on one side to allow viewing of the Mint Set from one side while the other side was hidden. For 1947 there were coins produced at three mints (P, D and S) so there will be three cards and a total of 28 mint state coins representing 10 coins each from the P and D mints and 8 coins from the S mint since there were no S-mint half dollars produced that year. Therefore, the silver value <i>alone </i>of this set is approximately $100.</p><p><br /></p><p>The set that you are looking at <i>without a doubt </i>an aftermarket accumulation of coins that are all circulated and you will find <i>one coin from each denomination. </i>The set has a silver value of approximately $18 and that is all it is worth. Again, <i>this is NOT a 1947 US Mint Set, </i>this is an aftermarket <i>year set </i>that has no relation whatsoever to the $1,300 quoted for a legitimate 1947 US Mint Set.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
