I've probably spent nearly 1000+ dollars on collecting the 1909-2009 era alone

It is easy to get lost in assembling a set and not keep track of the cost, BUT, Hey! at least your other bills were paid too, (right? ).

I keep coming across this on ebay.

Good lord.
Why is the set of Shield cents almost 850 dollars?
Really?

The massive amount of hype and hysteria surrounding the ending of mintage of the cent is one of the reasons why I do not collect past 2009 personally.

I'd say no more than 100-150 dollars for something like this,
and that might be pushing it. NOT 850 dollars.
At that price point... You could probably find a lower graded
S VDB for around there.

They have the non-proof set available for almost 250 dollars.

Seriously? I'd pay zero dollars for this. The album itself is worth more than the coins.

Way for people to capitalize on the cents no longer being minted for circulation lol

It's crazy. I'm hoping all this hype blows over and prices get back to normal...whatever that is.

Yes. I really do hope prices are normal next year. Or I might have to start CRH again.

Look closer at the listing. Many of the earlier cents from the 2010s have spotting, indicating that they were pulled from circulation. Dansco albums are selling for 50 bucks, proofs are maybe a buck a piece at most, lets call the 26 cents 5 dollars each since they're mint set exclusives, rest is literally pocket change, and its being sold for 820 bucks. Also, it can't even be called a "complete set", since it lacks the 3 2019-w cents. I want to cry
