Oh, without knowing all the grades it's impossible to determine value. However, I can also tell you this collection is in the 5 figure range FOR SURE.....being all slabbed I would guesstimate $15,000-30,000.

Weloome to the forum, You are obviously a very special person to have received this as a present from "a neighbor"What did you major in?. Also I too have some older neighbors however, they would not be as thoughtful as yours, maybe a "Thank-You" for shoveling their driveway........
Good luck with your collection. Did you say you are NOT a collector?, you are now.....

 to CCF CoinNut! That would be a great present! It's safe to say there's a lot of value here. How much would depend on what grading service certified them. If it was a top teir service like PCGS or NGC then you have a tremendous collection! Even ANACS or ICG slabs would bring a lot of money. If you post the name(s) of the TPG or a few pics we can give you a better idea of the value. Congratulations! |

I would say it is priceless. Most of us only dream of a set it that condition and then to have a complete collection makes it that much more admired. Like others have said, it is going to be tough to insure but I would think a great waterproof/fireproof safe would be a great starting place.
The best advice I can think of is to go and talk to your neighbor (not about price but safety). This person obviously thinks highly of you and can give some great advice.

Well for starters, the 1922 no D is not needed to complete the set because it was made in denver as was the 1922d. If you need that in there then you would need the 1983dd, 1995dd, 1955dd, 1984dd, and all the other error coins. Its a greese filled die not a variety like the wide ams. At least I think so anyway. But yes I'm guesing about 15-25 grand you have there.

What a neighbor welcome and congratulations on that set it is something to keep and will only become more valuable in the future.
What a set to pass down to one of your future children or a special person in your life in your senior years just think you can make someone else's day!
Anyway hold on to that!
Oh yes also congratulations also on graduating from college that is an even more special gift that you gave yourself! I quit school in 10 grade but did pretty good in life, did gt my GED in the USMC and passed on to my children how special an education is and am proud they both graduated college also with honors.

Sorry for not responding to all your responses. I was out of town for a week. I am very proud of the set and after reading some of your responses. I am glad I put it in a safety deposit box. I will def cherish it. Thanks for all the welcomes. oh, and someone asked what I majored in. Biology. I would like to eventually become a Game Warden for the Federal Government. I am a AVID hunter and fisherman so I just want to give a little something back.

I would say that the set is complete without the 22 no D. Technically it is just a very common error so its not really part of the set.
But the way. That is a super nice set.
Is it all PCGS? If so you might think of using it as a registry set.
