Im sorry I cant figure out how to uploads pictures to this forum :( I have recently acquired a beautiful complete set of bronze medallions that I would like some additional information on. Its called People Who Made America Great. It comes with a blue album/book. A set of 21 bronze coins in original cases with booklets for each. These cases fit into slots inside the album that closes like a hard cover book. The complete list of coins is pictured on the inside cover. The copyright on the inside cover in roman numerals is 1974 United States History Society, Inc. Skokie. Illinois 60076. The book is blue. Ive seen that someone posted a similar Red Book with maybe aluminum coins. Where can I find more information or values for such a set. Thank you!!

Welcome stephrenia! I have the aluminum set that I posted in another thread in April of 2018.
I do add "Great" sometimes to the name of the set but it is just "People Who Made America".
The bronze set is much more scarce than the aluminum, but the whole bronze set in high quality uncirculated condition is probably valued between $50.00 and $100 in my opinion. Here's a link to that post.

It's a neat set and they rarely show up on ebay for sale. I think I paid about $25 - $30 for my set including the purchase of a single Clara Barton from another seller which was missing.

Now that a certain auction is over and I am the winner I can say it was quite a coincidence that this topic came up.
There was a whole set of these selling individually for $5.95 each plus shipping. I dared not mention I was bidding on this one and maybe get outbid. I am sure that many did not sell and are re-listed. I was tempted to get Sitting Bull and Davy Crockett but passed.

"People who made America"
This one is the only one that really interested me. Since it is Annie Oakley, and my favorite, I can add it to a number of others I collected of "Little Sure Shot".
Comes with a booklet which I hope is informative and interesting.

I see the nice pictures. Thanks for following up. Neat set for sure. Looks like the booklets have good stories in them. Please hang around CCF!
