[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 125347, member: 112"]I have never been a fan of conventional coin albums, never will be. IMO there are far more cons than there are pros and Ive stated them many times. But hey, that's why they make chocolate & vanilla. As for value, there is no hard and fast rule. As a general rule though the individual coins can be sold for more than the set. That is assuming of course that the coins in the set and those out of the set are of equal quality. The only way to compare the value of a mint set in original packaging is with a mint set not in original packaging - like a set in a Capital holder. You can't compare it against the individual coins as they are not the same thing. But don't be so sure that you can't afford to buy the older mint sets if you wish to. Many of them are quite a bit cheaper than the new sets sold by the US Mint.[/QUOTE]
