Came across this set in a pawn shop yesterday. I am looking for some opinions on the set ,also what about a price for the set. I took couple of photos ,I have not seen the medallion in the middle before(it is not silver ?). It is priced at 225cdn. What do you think ?

The pawn shop market price is about right. The numismatic market price would be at least $50 less than the pawn shop market price without the medallion.
I am assuming the medallion is not silver. I know nothing of it, but the pictures suggest that it is silver plated copper.

I agree with Sel-691. Except for the 1935, the other dollars you can get for 20-25 dollars each. The 35 depending on grade might be worth $50.00 I can't see any real value in the medallion. I would offer $175.00 and see what happens.

The medal exists in silver and nickel, so time to break out a magnet.

Thanks for the replies . Next time I pass by will have another look if it is still there and also take a magnet.I thought the price was a little on the high side ,never seen the medallion before, so it is nice to know that it could possibly be silver. Learn something new on here every time I come on CCF! Thanks again.

Going by the picture, the medallion looks like it is nickel or nickel plated but it wouldn't hurt to double check it with a magnet.

Depending on how bad you want the Commemorative coin, is it hard to get? If no, I would start at $150, walk away at $175 if the dollars are really nice MS quality. The dollars are all fairly common and can easily be at reasonable prices as JimmyD mentioned BV is about $80-$90?

If the medal turns out to be silver plated copper or bronze, it will not be attracted to a magnet.
