I probably overpaid for them but now that I look at it, no other sellers are selling them. </p><p><br /></p><p>I also got reminded that back a few years ago, there was a seller in the UK that sold the rare Soviet 1970 mint set.

Or just forgot about it big time. There was a person that emailed me a photo of a hoard of Chinese occupation coins that he inherited - somewhere absurd at around 500 to 1000 where each coin would be worth around 20 dollars in XF condition. In UNC condition? Who knows but with that hoard - good grief. More than enough to depress the market.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
