dimeplayersonly New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 06/04/2011 4:23 pm I just searched through 50 unopened proof sets and found something a little interesting. The last set I opened was dated 1961 and it is missing the Lincoln Cent and has two Roosevelt dimes (which are toned). Just a little curious if this set is worth anything or not? First time to find this in many years of opening sealed sets. I know there would be a limited market for interest in this and the value is what somebody is willing to pay, but should I list this set for? Thanks for any feedback! dimeplayersonly Report this Post to the Staff

mkman123 Pillar of the Community United States 3184 Posts	Posted 06/04/2011 4:47 pm probably not worth much except that you got an extra $2.50+ worth in silver. It would be worth more if the coins itself had some sort of error. Report this Post to the Staff

I didn't think that it was worth more than the extra silver, but crazy things happen in the Coin World, lol. EgCollector: Much appreciation for the warm welcome. It is a pleasure to be here :) Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 06/04/2011 11:45 pm Value of a 61 set minus the value of a 61 proof cent plus the value of a 61 proof dime plus maybe a buck. As a general rule packaging errors are worth about a dollar premium. Report this Post to the Staff
