What wise elders you have , maybe you will consider finding new cases for some of those that are cracked so they dont fall apart more and you possibly lose a coin.

That 67 at the end is actually one I received form my uncle back in 1996 when I was 6 years old and it's stayed the same as when I got it. As for the cases, I'm debating it. The pictures are bad but they actually still look perfect inside and I am scared to open and touch them lol

If you spread out a clean soft towel and wear some new soft cotton gloves you should be able to swap them , just be careful. They are very nice sets to get from your relatives.

First I LOVE the look of the '67 set... man that dollar looks like it would grade very high 65+
as for the other sets.. I say keep 'em as they are.. the look adds character and goes well with the story

i am looking at the 1965 and saying "a potential LB"...

This is the other side of the 1967. Little mark on her face and another little one on her neck. I'm guessing it wouldn't grade as high?  Also, what does that mean LB mean...large beads? If so, how would one check properly? |

Vanislekid,
what reason do you have to say this to be a possible LB?

The 1970 set has some lower mintage coins, relatively speaking;
the 5 Cent coin - 5,726,010 (Strike that year at the Mint I heard, key date, low mintage nickel)
the 10 Cent coin - 5,249,296 (1971 Mintage 41 Million +)
the 25 Cent coin - 10,302,010 (1971 - 48 Million +)

Very nice sets indeed.. For now,..I'd keep them safe and sound as they are here.
I'd like to see them shown with the obverse sides identified to their respective year. You'd also want to show us the flip side of the 73 quarter and the a close up of the reverse of the 74 dollar as there could be very collectable varieties in some of these sets. Other varieties could be in the other sets also..
