    if you liek the set and it goes a a couple of bucks up dont hesitate to buy it usually those things are cheap but hard to find in the condition you like. if you see a nice dood gold coin let me know ok?

    I would say that you are rather limited on that particular set. I would personally go up to $30 on that set if I were in the market for it. Remember that the only real price there is for any coin(s) is the amount of money you are willing to part with for it/them and the amount of time you are willing to wait to get it for that much. ;)

    Good luck!
