    There are some nice colors there, but I also see some marks and spots. It might be better as an original intact double mint set.

    When you break one of these sets for one coin, that could needs to get a really high grade to make it work out financially.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    @BillJones . The mint set is only worth 320.00 and I'm seeing at the very least 66+ in the 25c & 50c - Roll the bones!

    ANACS will dual certify that it's the original boards/coins and then certify the coins -check their website. I think it's a company called OVS.

    I would leave it as it be. These sets are getting harder to come by that havent been swapped out IMHO

    Only if it is your collection :)

    Several of these coins have already been "over cooked". Leaving them there isn't going to improve matters.

    If you do what you always did, you get what you always got.

    I would sell the set intact..... Less cost and with the right venue, likely a reasonable profit. Cheers, RickO

    Intact has a much better story. Popped out really has no story.

    Keep it as is. Graded 1958 coins with color are a dime a dozen. Not much value slabbed.
