It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!
Marty, I was looking at that set as well.Almost bought it yesterday.I noticed that the seller uses the same pics in most of his auctions.I contacted him to clarify that those were the same coins I would receive.His answer was a little vague.He replied by only saying they were in an acrylic holder as shown.Didn't say they were the exact coins I would receive like I asked.I decided to pass.It'll be interesting to see what you get.The half certainly looks nice in the pic.Hope it comes to you as shown.Good Luck.
I'll kicked myself later if it turns out to be sweet....

It was nice of you to leave these three cameo 1966 sets for me at $14 each shipped.
And, before you even say, I know because I've bought from him plenty of times. Still worth a shot for that little money.

Did you miss the part where I said "before you even say it."
