That is a good price dude!
davis, 700-800 is the value of that set. If it is graded 69 or 70, it can go a good bit higher. No reason for it to drop below that price range.

Not unopened, but COA & OGP w/box, etc. - a fellow numisicist on hard times from what I gathered from his posting. Able to happen to any of us @ any time, this day & age given the political/economic arena at hand.

If you search ebay, you'll see that the recent lowest prices for this set were about $625. Meanwhile average high is about $700-$750, with an occasional flight into $800 territory. So, while you didn't get a steal, you got a very good price in the lower end of the range. Incidentally, I am noticing that there are fewer and fewer ungraded sets for sale. And unopened boxes fewer still. Anyone else notice the same? |

Am noticing the plethora of graded proof ASE coins, what's the purpose of grading a mint proof really? Not worth the extra cost time & aggravation as I see it - maybe professionals tend to disagree. Edited by zookr

Storage, protection, easier to sell ect. But its not worth sending a proof into be graded for the moderns unless you get a 70 from a financial standpoint |

It amazes me how close OGP sets are selling to full PF/RP/MS 70 sets. You can readily find full 70 sets for $1150 these days!
