<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clinker, post: 153039, member: 6229&quot;]Hello Sabatka:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A registered set is a mint set or proof set authenticated and graded by one of the <i>Slab</i> companies.&nbsp; </p><p><i>First strikes</i> are a con game unless a mint offers them with a postage stamp of the same year. As dies wear out and are replaced with new dies, there are new <i>first strikes.</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>Melt value</i> is the bullion value of a coin if you were to melt it.&nbsp; <i>Just over melt value</i> means the dealer is offering you a coin for an amount just above <i>melt value.</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Hope this helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
