Just recently completed my set of silver eagle proofs with the 1995w anniversary set. started collecting the set for my daughter. Should i give it to her or hold on to it for investiment?
Well it's totally up to you what you do with your coins but if I were you here is what I would have to think about. Is my daughter old enough to know how special the coins are. Will she take care of them--(not clean then and not get fingerprints on them) Should I wait till she needs the money and then sell the set and and give her the money. Should I wait and just will it to her. Since this set would be worth a few thousand I would have to think it all through before I'd give them to my daughter. So it's total up to you..we can't tell you what to do with your coins. Hope we can help someway. Speedy
Wow congratz on completing that collection. I am jealous, but in a good way. I am curious did you just do this as an investment or is this a hobby for you? Also does she have any interest in this hobby? If she shows no interest what so ever I would hold on to it for her and give it to her at a specail time and explain it's value (not just its monatry value). Guess my point is what are your reasons for doing this and what do you hope to accomplish by giving it to her? If you answered those two questions the answer might be obvious. Paul
just curious as to the value, complete set with 1995W, dups of all the West point silver eagles since 2000.
are your coins graded ? or are they raw coins,with varying degrees of grade? Its hard to determine value without a little info on each coin in a raw ungraded state. But a simple way is how much did it cost to put together what you have, since the set isnt complete in a true sense it is complete to date but the series continues,so its value is what you have invested so far with a small premium perhaps on a few of the coins by specific date and grade.
Well lets say the coins are raw and are in the normal grade MS68 and PF68...the set would be valued at-- (I'm not an expert..just looking in a price guide...you might get more and might get less) $4,200.00---since its complete it might be a little more...if they are slabbed or higher grade maybe a little more....NOTE...that is just a guess and I am in no ways an expert.
