<p>[QUOTE=&quot;calcol, post: 3045071, member: 77639&quot;]Not that I&#039;ll ever need it, but anyone have knowledge how armored carrier works for coin transport.&nbsp; I assume that the transport company picks up a sealed package and doesn&#039;t inspect the contents.&nbsp; Will they deliver to a residence?&nbsp; If to a bank, do you have to be there to meet them?&nbsp; What&#039;s the cost?</p><p><br /></p><p>I would guess that if the set sells intact, that many of the coins will reappear on the market fairly soon.&nbsp; Chances are the buyer would only want a few of the set.&nbsp; Exception would be an investor who buys the whole set with hopes of appreciation.&nbsp; This may be an evolving effect of registries in that investors can buy certified, publicly recognized sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>I find it a common misconception among non-collectors that a complete set is worth more than the sum of its parts.&nbsp; Usually the reverse is true.&nbsp; Collectors like the fun of the chase.&nbsp; Additionally, when a complete set comes on the market, high bidders are usually interested in only a few coins in the set.&nbsp; So their final bid represents retail for the coins they want and wholesale for the rest because they&#039;ll be selling them soon.&nbsp; However, high-end complete sets may become like famous paintings&nbsp; ...&nbsp; attractive to investors.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve bought only one complete set ... war nickels before slabbing existed.&nbsp; Still have it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Cal[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
