It's one of those nifty Texas coin & currency sets made by the BEP.
The Bureau of Engraving and Printing knows how to assemble a coin set that puts the US Mint to shame. Hefty and substantial padded and tooled leatherette, velvet-lined folding display case with hard acrylic cases that securely fold out so both sides of the bills can be seen. Full-color heavy card stock brochure/certificate of authenticity with complete details of the set and the contents. Two uncirculated Texas state quarters (both grade in the mid- to upper 60s, call them MS65 to be safe).
But the bills are the meat of the set: Crisp series 2003 $1, $2, $5, and $10 STAR NOTES with matching incredibly low serial numbers: KD 00003779 A
I understand the BEP only made 2000 of these sets and they sold out in a day.
What I really want is around $250 worth of gold. Ideally a 1/4 oz and a 1/10 ounce eagle, preferably PCGS, NGC, or ANACS 69 or 70. Proof or Unc, doesn't matter, dates don't matter. But I'll consider any offer of gold, gold & silver, etc.
