Beautiful set, and can't be presented any better than in a Dansco! I'm sure you are very satisfied with the set!

trying to bring this topic back to light. I recently purchased 1 of 2 coins needed for completion.

but since I have fallen on hard times I may need to sell the book and all the gorgeous mint state coins along with it.

i am just wondering, what a set like mine would bring.
all the coins have been meticulously hand picked for eye appeal, bell lines in tact or full, luster and strike. with that being said all of these coins in my opinion would grade ms63 or higher. please let me know how much I might expect to bring in for this set.

thanks

You will likely get the most selling them one by one. Going by Coin World values in MS 63 we have... 25, 24, 50, 60, 100, 35, 35, 20, 45, 35, 20, 20, 70, 30, 20, 40, 25, 25, 35, 35, 20. That takes you to 56, in order. Then 57 on, they are all listed at 18 or 19 and 63D is 20.

Now, thats full value at MS63. You wont necessarily get that, but that will give you an idea.

Sorry you are at the point of having to sell. Hope everything works out for you man.

Very nice. Makes me want to start a Franklin set. Are there raw MS60+ coins out there?

It is a beautiful collection of Franklin halves, much better than my circulated set. I know about the hard times issue as I had to sell $8,000 of my coins last year due to unemployment. I hope your hard times end soon.
