Hard to tell much without seeing some of the semi-keys up close, but that price seems pretty dear based on the LWC set alone. Perhaps there's more value in the LMC set than I realize.

Seems like a decent deal and a nice jump start on a Lincoln set. I will warn you though - it can get kind of addicting.

Well Numis, look at what I sell on ebay, condition compatible, so for what you paid I would say is OK. It is odd the 28S is missing and not the 26S, might check that one $15 difference there. The Dansco album is worth quite a chunk of the price too. The LMC'S aren't in BU apparently therefore I'd consider that a wash, no more worth on those than face, decade sets of PF 65's are super cheap now, only gets pricey under 1962. Personally a lot of those coins look AG/G in early date (pre40) LWCs that came from a bulk purchase, LMCs appear CRH,a lot of upgrade room. Suggest you plan now to either leave it low grade or jump big, start replacing with MS coins in both series.

Coinfrog, you could well be quite right, are the correct dates even in place? Hadn't considered that before, if it was complete as pictured the album @$20, LWCs @$100 in AG/G and no more than $50 for LMCs, that does add up a teeny bit less now don't it?

When I think of the time I saved in not having to assemble 282 different coins it makes it worth it for me. Do you guys charge for labor?

Glad you're satisfied, but still can't see the value here. Could you show us some close-ups of semi-keys like '11-S, '12-S, '13-S, '14-S and '15-S?

Also consider what you could pay for shipping on single coins or even small lots.
