<p>[QUOTE="JJK78, post: 1518902, member: 19207"]From what I have seen quality appears to be an issue with these sets which is why we are seeing a big split between high grade coins and raw sets which have already been looked over. Out of the 10 sets I ordered initially I sent 4 in but after pulling them out of the mint holders I think only 3 may grade 70. Many of the reverse proofs have slight breaks in the frosting and a few of them even have what I would call die polish swirls as several of the coins have them (i'll get pictures later). </p><p><br /></p><p>I have 5 more on order and I am anxious to see how the quality pans out. Even if they are higher quality and more PF70's come out of them all of the First Strike 70's are going to keep pushing up in value... Wish I would have bought a few PCGS sets @ $249, congrats to everyone who did... those are pretty steady in the $400-$450~ range.</p><p><br /></p><p>Only time will tell how these will do and it will be interesting to see what happens when the next round of orders goes out... We will be closing in on Christmas time and I'm sure there are still alot of people who are waiting to get theirs~[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
