How much is a complete BU Roosevelt dime set worth? 1946 - 2014

I was at my local coin shop today looking for an album when I saw this complete BU Roosevelt set 1946-2014. I'm not a big dime fan but I want complete sets and this one was stunning! He offered it to me for $195. What do you think?

If it includes all the P,D,S mint marks, by all means grab it!

 

@KevoCoin , with all due respect, half the fun of putting sets together is hand picking each coin. I respect people's choice to buy a complete set, but that seems to be more hoarding than collecting to me.

 

You are correct of course, but at 60 years old I was thinking, with the time I have left, I would buy this just to save me some time so I could focus on my more extreme projects. But that is a good deal.

 

@jpcienkus I couldn't agree more! I actually went in to buy an empty Roosevelt dime book because I wanted to try to fill it with whatever junk dimes I had and then just sell the rest of my junk silver to finance my 7070. My dream is to have a completed BU 7070, but I love all sets; especially shiny ones! With my junk silver being all low grade, I wouldn't be able to complete a nice set of dimes unless I bought them 1 by 1... which is more trouble than it is worth with this set.

 

I'm a young collector (19) who's invested a bit into my collection, but the bulk of it came from my grandfather when he passed. A lot of it was junk silver with some uncompleted sets (franklins, indians, morgans, peace dollars). I filled the Franklin book with my own money . My plan is to sell most of the junk silver to finance the rest of the sets + 7070

 

I've been working on a toned Roosevelt set just 46-64 the silver ones. I'm finding nice ms coins from 5-12 $.
So that said average of $6 @ dime × 46 =$276 for the original Roosevelt set 46 P,D,S -64 P,D. So $195.00 for 1946-2014 good deal .

 

Defiantly buy and resell and buy coin you find and Like!

 

Defiantly!.....

 

And with AUTHORITY!

 

If you do end up buying it, make sure to check for RPM and DD...

 

And maybe a "Hot Lips"!

 

I ended up buying it for $180 and it came with a 1996 W

 

Nice buy, and happy for you!

 

That's not hot lips...this is...

 

Did the set come with proofs?

 

That all depends......do you want original skin or the secondary market variety.......

 

No it didn't. Came with all mint marks 1946-2014 in BU condition with an added 1996 W in Dansco. Also no hot lips

 

Are the '82 and '83 issues really Unc? Most times these dates are sliders.

They aren't worth all that much but you just can't find Uncs and there are lots of XF's and AU's out there.
