<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 1089137, member: 68&quot;]Actually this is a very impressive collection.&nbsp; All the later dates are probably pretty easy and always will be but some of those early dates are real bears.&nbsp; You&#039;re probably aware the &#039;55 to 1961 issues all have pretty substantial premiums.&nbsp; In my experience these premiums are warranted (up to $50 for the 1960) but I believe they are fully priced and they won&#039;t increase until there&#039;s a substantial increase in demand.&nbsp; But the &#039;67 and &#039;68 are grossly underpriced and are worth multiples of catalog.&nbsp; The &#039;68 is probably a little better.&nbsp; It had a mintage of 200,000,000 but there were no mint sets and it wasn&#039;t saved.&nbsp; Even XF&#039;s and AU&#039;s are tough.&nbsp; The &#039;69 appeared in a low mintage set and is underpriced greatly as a single.&nbsp; The &#039;70,&nbsp; &#039;71 and &#039;72 are in higher mintage sets with high attrition and are also underpriced.&nbsp; The &#039;74 and &#039;75 issue are in very unstable by high mintage mint sets.&nbsp; Most of these have been destroyed by PVC by now.&nbsp; It&#039;s open to debate how many survive but the coins in th sets were very gemmy.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d say you have a great set and I would be interested in trading for it or possibly purchasing it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This set can be put together all day long in circulated grades but many of the uncs are far more desirable than the price indicates.&nbsp; The home market prices these much higher than does Krause and in my opinion the home market undervalues them.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Gems shouldn&#039;t be too tough except for the &#039;67 and &#039;68.&nbsp; I concentrate a little more on the 100y but the ...50y are just as nice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
