vinnycoin Valued Member Canada 442 Posts	Posted 04/14/2011 11:35 pm Complete set does have more numismatic value. If its the same set as mine, there should be 5 dollar and 10 dollar coins, each 925 sterling. Very nice coin set indeed. Report this Post to the Staff

Also check for the mule in the first set (1973 $5 Olympic coin with a 1974 obverse).

silver4ever New Member Canada 37 Posts	Posted 05/11/2011 1:18 pm Olympic 1973/1974 Mule 10 Dollars. Mintage of this coin is a mere 320 coins minted and the demand has grown on this very rare error coin. This coin was accidental struck with the obverse of a 1974 Die that was to be used for the nest set of coins, but somehow was struck with an older die, causing the error or Mule when two wrong dies are struck together Report this Post to the Staff
