CC-Ottawa Pillar of the Community Canada 3690 Posts	Posted 01/18/2012 11:18 am I saw the items posted by this seller last night and also wondered about what seemed like 'crazy' prices. The one item that initially caught my eye was a 'rare' 1971 Specimen set for just over 1500$. Is that set really that rare? Report this Post to the Staff
Smallcentguy Pillar of the Community Canada 1984 Posts	Posted 01/18/2012 11:58 am I am not sure what they are up to with the prices. Maybe just trying to get attention. They also listed on ebay the solo ms66 1929 cent at close to $10,000. The same coin is in one of their upcoming auction with a start price of 2900 after going unsold at several recent auctions with a start of 6000 and then later 5000 as I recall.

Ugly Pillar of the Community Canada 1733 Posts	Posted 01/18/2012 12:12 pm @ CC. No, The specimen coinage that year was available to all Canadians via the "Prestige Set" aka Double Dollar Set. To my knowledge, there were no special issue narrow cases like there were in 1970. IF the coins are in one of those, all it is (in my opinion only) is a 71 specimen set in a 70 case (of which there are only around a 1000ish apparently). The specimen coins the seller has listed aren't all that spectacular grade wise so I have no idea what's up. Report this Post to the Staff
