<p>[QUOTE="jays-dad, post: 1089498, member: 26881"]I bought 5 sets of coins on ebay. The coins were fairly cheap, but shipping was high. By buying all 5 sets and getting combined shipping, the cost per coin wasn't too bad. I spent $46 for all which included shipping. Some really nice higher value coins. The sets are in frames:</p><p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673270824&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673270824&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673270824&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT</a></p><p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673270461&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673270461&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673270461&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT</a></p><p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673271190&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673271190&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673271190&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT</a></p><p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673271951&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673271951&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120673271951&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT</a></p><p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170592133424&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170592133424&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170592133424&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>All of the coins are from proof and mint sets, so some stuff of value.
