The Mogan Mint. Are they reproductions or real?

blastpak

Ii was checking out the Mogan Mint website and noticed they have some great coins for good prices in proof sets. My question is: Are they "real" coins minted in that date or reproductions? Thank you

Do you have a link? If it's the 1936 "proof" set, they're fake.

Could you give a couple specific examples?

I believe they sell real coins.

They do have a 1936 proof set for $10,500. So are they real?

Morgan Mint does sell genuine Proof Sets. But they are all overpriced. You can do much better elsewhere.

But you can get a 1960 proof set for $42.00.

If I had one, I'd sell it to you for around $15... don't know the true price right now, but it would probably be even less than that.

Those prices SUCK

I got an email advertisement from them once, and checked out their web site. They carry both real coins and reproductions. The reproductions are mostly novelty items (some are actually very cool). They seem to be reputable, IMO. Since they carry such a huge inventory, you would have to shop around to see if the price for what you're looking for is fair.

Bid on 1960 is $15.

Or go to eBay and find a buy it now 1960 Proof set for $18.99.

Thats good to know. Thank you all. Where would you send me to get good prices on proof sets that I would plan on keeping for 30 years or more to give to my children?

First check out the Buy, Sell, and Trade forum--do a search for proof sets--or if you do ebay, check out the sets there.
