<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 1813462, member: 36230&quot;]As Larry said, you need to see them in-hand, and even then you need to ask yourself if you know enough about such coins to safely and comfortably buy. Perhaps it would be a good idea to do some searching online to see how much similar (assume average) sets are actually selling for, and don&#039;t put any weight into the seller&#039;s &quot;<i>over $1000 retail value</i>&quot; claim. The other gentleman was right in saying that some will be worth more than the average, and some worth less, so this is something you need to be very aware of and don&#039;t use a price guide for valuing, especially with the lower value/demand dates which can often be had from B&amp;Ms and/or general dealers at significant discounts.</p><p><br /></p><p>As always, it is one thing if you want the coin (or in this case coins) as a personal collectible, but a whole different ballgame if you&#039;re hoping for a flip. Craigslist <i>used</i> to be a decent venue for both buying and selling, but when metal values started rising a few years back, it didn&#039;t take long for it to turn into a haven for the dreamers, wannabes, and cons. With a set such as this, I would not worry too much about security, but be aware of the possibility this guy may be trying to snag a sucker; CL can be a great place to namelessly unload junk to someone who does not know any better and/or is hoping for a &quot;deal&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>The holders are the so-called &quot;premium&quot; version offered by CoinWorld, and IIRC, sell retail at just under $3 for a package of three.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
