This is such a pet-peeve of mine. While channel surfing, I cam across the Coin Vault 
only to find them hawking "Coins of the 20th Century in a Whitman Folder.
I am very familiar with this as I have put together a few of these simple sets to give as gifts to a couple of my friends children who express an interest in coins. To say the whole works is worth $75.00 is a stretch.
The coins include:
Indian, wheatie, steel penny and Lin Mem
Buff Nickel, Silver Jeff, clad Jeff
Barber Dime, Merc, Roosie silver, Roosie clad
Liberty Head, Standing Liberty, Wash silver, Wash clad, Bi-Centennial, Statehood Quarter
90% Silver Kennedy, 40% Silver Kennedy, Clad Kennedy, Standing Liberty, BiCentennial Kennedy, Liberty Head Half, Franklin
Morgan, Peace, Ike, Ike BiCentennial and SBA dollars
The price is $139.95
The worse part being the representation that this is $336.00 in coins! According to our esteemed host, some of the values include:
1971 Ike - $10.00
BiCentennial Ike - $15.00
Washington Silver Quarter - $15.00
Morgan Dollar - $40.00
Peace Dollar - $40.00
Mercury Dime - $5.00
Roosevelt Dime - $4.00
Buffalo Nickel - $5.00
SBA - $10.00
BiCentennial Kennedy - $15.00
Silver Kennedy (64) - $12.00
40% Silver Kennedy - $15.00
and of course the $15.00 folder you can buy for $4.95, if that. This MIGHT be worth $60.00.
For these well circulated coins, these "values" being hawked to an unknowing public are criminal.
There just oughta be a law.

Who is a worse scammer, some of the sellers on Ebay, or the Coin Vault?
