There is no accurate way to evaluate a set like that or even a random list of dates without knowing the condition of some of the key coins in the set. There are lots of collectors doing their darndest to finish just such a set as you describe. It's almost guaranteed that, if you were to sell them online through a venue such as ebay, a better overall price would be obtained by selling the better ones one-at-a-time. PICS please . . . |

The value of this entire set really boils down to the condition and authenticity of the 1916-d! In the grades you are talking about, it is worth probably 4x the rest of the set combined. It absolutely must be certified before selling. The 1921 p/d will add a bit of extra value in higher grades.

Good pictures are essential to grading this set, you need to take obverse and reverse of the dates mention above, and the mint mark close up of the 16-d is a must. Oh!  |

Most of the dates in this set prices are now determined by the price of silver.

Apparently no one else wanted to welcome you so I'll do it for all. Actually you already got most of the possible answers. Asking someone a question as vague as that is like asking how much is my car worth without any info except it is in good condition. And what makes it even more difficult is how some would say this coin is a G-4 and someone else would say it's a F-12. There are many price guides on the internet. I just downloaded one for Mercury dimes from the NGC web site on coin prices. Numismedia and PCGS also have such price listings. Just to give you an idea of price variations, in the NGC listing for Mercury dimes they go from G-4 @ $820 to MS67 @ $44,850. Since this is only a guide, those prices are really also flexible. The 21 could run up to as much as $20,000 in MS-67. Other questions so far not asked is what kind of Album or Folder are they in? Are they all in 2x2's? All in a jar? Odd no 43's, 44's or 45's. Did you check for those 42/41 and the 42D/41? Now back to the grades. Quote:
P.S all coins are in fine or extreme fine condition. Exactly what do you mean by Fine to ExFine? Such a set could run from a few thousand to almost a hundred thousand based on condition. |
