<p>[QUOTE=&quot;d.t.menace, post: 1706048, member: 18944&quot;]I was browsing commems on the bay the other day and saw a &#039;93 Jefferson Coin and Currency set about to end with the bidding up over 70 bucks. My first thought of course was &quot;bidiots&quot; but I thought just for the heck of it I&#039;d check recent completed auctions. </p><p><br /></p><p>Sure enough it wasn&#039;t a couple over- testeroned bidders. I didn&#039;t find any that sold for less than 68 dollars. </p><p><br /></p><p>I bought a couple of these sets back in &#039;10 and per my records I paid $27 and $29 for them. </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s most unusual for a mint issue that&#039;s been out this long to show a marked increase in value like this one apparently has. I was just curious if anyone has heard of a reason for the new interest in these. Has a new variety been discovered recently? What&#039;s the scoop?&nbsp; </p><p>Here&#039;s a couple examples.</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-Thomas-Jefferson-Coin-and-Currency-Set-2-Note-w-Rare-Matte-Finish-Nickel-/320970137304?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item4abb4f9ed8" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-Thomas-Jefferson-Coin-and-Currency-Set-2-Note-w-Rare-Matte-Finish-Nickel-/320970137304?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item4abb4f9ed8" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-Thomas-Jefferson-Coin-and-Currency-Set-2-Note-w-Rare-Matte-Finish-Nickel-/320970137304?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item4abb4f9ed8</a></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-UNCIRCULATED-THOMAS-JEFFERSON-COINAGE-AND-CURRENCY-SET-/310650833846?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item48543b8bb6" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-UNCIRCULATED-THOMAS-JEFFERSON-COINAGE-AND-CURRENCY-SET-/310650833846?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item48543b8bb6" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-UNCIRCULATED-THOMAS-JEFFERSON-COINAGE-AND-CURRENCY-SET-/310650833846?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item48543b8bb6</a></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-1994-250th-Anniversary-Thomas-Jefferson-Coinage-Currency-Mint-Set-/350777776803?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item51abfc1aa3" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-1994-250th-Anniversary-Thomas-Jefferson-Coinage-Currency-Mint-Set-/350777776803?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item51abfc1aa3" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-1994-250th-Anniversary-Thomas-Jefferson-Coinage-Currency-Mint-Set-/350777776803?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item51abfc1aa3</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
