[QUOTE="RedTiger, post: 732377, member: 19098"]For many moderns and ultramoderns Teletrade, Ebay, Heritage will have auction results to see what the going rate is. Teletrade doesn't show a full 2003 set, but does have a few of the individual coins. $6 for the dime, $24 for the half, $33 for the dollar (a person has to factor in fees and shipping for buying on Teletrade). Maybe figure in $20 for the cent, $10 for the nickel, and $130+ does sound a bit high, though not totally out of line if PF70 is what a person wants. Obviously not that many on this forum want PF70. However, I always tell folks to collect what they like, not what someone else like's. That said, the price is on the high side for coins of similar quality, though with grading fees and shipping, it is not that easy to replicate the PF70 set at the $130 price. Raw sets may or may not approach the same quality. I suggest that for folks that can't tell the difference in grades, best to save the money and buy a decent looking coin in the lower grade, instead of buying a number on a label that a person can't discern for themselves.[/QUOTE]
