<p>[QUOTE="Victor, post: 1031603, member: 5454"]Years ago I was buying up Franklin half dollars and completed a few sets. When I sold a couple complete sets I probably did a bit better than break even. However if I had kept them and sold today it would have doubled what I paid.</p><p> Now on my Barber half dollar set the story changes. I only have one set which needs 8 more coins to finish. Those do not come cheaply. So I more or less have to pay full retail to keep going with the set. If ever it's time to sell I know I'll take a shellacing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
