<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3581915, member: 66"]The problem is it is NOT any kind of a special set. Some dealer simply gathers together a bunch of the coins and then paid the grading service a fee to have a custom label placed on them. Yes, he may have only had 2005 sets made up, but there is nothing keeping him from making up more of them at any time he wants to. The coins are available in quantity, and the dealer has the right to use that label. And it wouldn't even be false advertising because these would be "1 of X number of sets", but not the same set. They could also pull a trick I've seen where you see something labeled "1 of X number of sets" but EVERY set is labeled 1 of X because every set IS 1 of that set. But since these sets are in no way any kind of an "official" set dealers can make up any kind of "limited" set they want at any time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
