CarrsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 756 Posts	Posted 08/22/2022 4:49 pm while the coins themselves are relatively common its hard to find a better provenance than the Eliasberg collection. for those unfamiliar Louis Elaisberg Sr. is the only person to complete a set of United States coins. he completed the set in 1950 and kept it current until his death in 1976.

hokiefan_82 Pillar of the Community United States 3634 Posts	Posted 08/22/2022 5:10 pm Interesting display for, as you mention, a common set. With that pedigree and signed certificate, I'm sure it went for at least a couple orders of magnitude higher price than a typical 1970 proof set. Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.
