<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 39026, member: 68&quot;]There were very few dimes or quarters from the mid-1980&#039;s that were saved by collectors.&nbsp; Many of these coins would be quite scarce if not for the existence of mint sets.&nbsp; The &#039;86 mint set was made in very small numbers and has had a small set premium for most of its existence.&nbsp; This set premium evaporates when a set is dismantled and serves to reduce the number of sets being destroyed.&nbsp; This means both the &#039;86 quarters (and dimes) have a higher price caused by the lack of availability in singles and rolls.&nbsp; Roll coins tend to be quite poor quality and even though the mint set quality is not good for these, there are lots of nice gems.&nbsp; You&#039;ll need about 50 sets to find a really nice Philly and the sets run about $20 each though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
