Fuzzy317 - no...no..not at all. These are original U.S. Mint double mint sets that command a significant premium.
I was lucky enough to breathe the same air as these coins when I snapped photos with my phone.
I did purchase a couple of Lincolns from some other mints sets that were broke up. They only graded MS64RB by PCGS, but have some DEEP toning.

1949 S that is quite colorful. My photo skills do not provide any justice for this coin. Definitely not worth what I paid for it (not a lot, but definitely a premium)...especially considering this is but an MS64RB.  |

Love the old original double mint sets. The toning the old cardboard imparts onto the coins is usually breathtaking as your photos show on many coins. Love the subtle rainbow toning on that Franklin.

I would be interested to know what kind of prices the shop was asking for? Are any of the coins for sale individually or just as sets? Name of shop? Location?

I know Bjorn. My first thought after I saw your pics and where you're located was that might be his stuff. I know he loves toned mint sets, Franklin's in particular.
