<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RedTiger, post: 1476569, member: 19098&quot;]&gt;&gt; BTW, gbroke&#039;s $400 - $700 sounds low to me, but again, so much depends on the quality of coin you&#039;re wanting to go with. &gt;&gt;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Agreed, that low number might be doable for a set with worn slick culls and/or holed coins in the set. I&#039;d say that $2000 to $4000 is a more of a ballpark for no problem coins with a readable date and full rims. A person could spend much more because prices go up as the grades go up. Being in Bahrain will pose a significant hurdle. A smaller starter set might be 20th century U.S. coins and might be a $150 to $250 value set in circulated grades with much of that value in the silver coins. The 20th century set is often sold complete, so that option might be a way to cut down on shipping. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also keep in mind that while very popular, the Dansco 7070 is not a complete U.S. type set. It excludes most of the very expensive 18th century coins. There is also a 7070 album gold page which can be an expensive option. The 7070 album is sometimes sold complete, but for many collectors that removes the thrill of the hunt. Another problem to be mindful of, is that there are fake coins are on the market, and they might be sold in the album, or sold as singles or small batches.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
