calvin5 New Member United States 0 Posts	Posted 04/26/2009 02:58 am Completely new at coin collecting - enjoying searching for and filling in the Whitman coin folders. When one is complete is it common for folks to sell the folders? what would be a rough value beyond the obvious coins and folder valuies? for example a complete set of the Lincoln cents 1941-1974? been hunting aroud ebay and couldnt find anyone trying to sell them. can someone help? thanks calvin Report this Post to the Staff

steve199 Pillar of the Community United States 1882 Posts	Posted 04/26/2009 03:56 am Welcome to the forum. There is no real additional value for a set of cents just because they are in a Whitman folder. The most important factor in the value would be the grade of the coins themselves. And if they are higher grades, they would be better protected in a coin album (or in 2x2's, or in air-tites). A coin album allows both sides to be viewed, and has plastic slides that cover both sides of the coins. One of the sets I'm working on is an uncirculated set of cents from 1959 to date...putting them in a Dansco album. For the date range you mentioned, each coin would probably be worth less than a nickel each in an average circulated grade. But they are fun to find! Report this Post to the Staff
KenKat Pillar of the Community United States 4085 Posts	Posted 04/26/2009 10:15 am Try searching for 1941 1974 in Coins: US > Small Cents on ebay. You can pick up a nice set for $10-15 and could expect to sell one in that same range. Incomplete or poorly presented sets can go for less. Here's a decent looking set that went for $11.50: http://cgi.ebay.com/Complete-Book-T...BU_W0QQitemZ 180343865869QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCoins_US_Individual?hash=item180343865869&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66:2%7C65:13%7C39:1%7C240:1318%7C301:0%7C293:1%7C294:50 Ken My 7070 US Type Set My 7100 Lincoln Cent Set (now with updates!)
