Need assistance with values of "tough" 60's and 70s Norway Mint sets

Recently acquired a run of 60s and 70s Norway mint sets including the "tough" '68 set with the 2 Ore coin produced only for the set with a mntage over a little ove 3,400 . I am trying to find a realistic price/value outside of what is quoted in the Krause catalog. Values shown are from 2010 35th edition catalog Current catalog values are higher

1967 8 coin set in original soft plastic as issued dulled a bit from PVC. one end ssplit and taped. 2010 Krause value is $250
1968 8 coin set in original soft plastic as issued slightly dulled from PVC. 2010 Krause $1,050
1969 8 coin set in hard plastic holder and blue card insert holding coins with holder somewhat scuffed. Coins OK. Krause $55 to $125 ??
1970 8 coin set in original soft plastic as issued. 2010 Krause is $225
1971 8 coin set in original soft plastic as issued some PVC dulling. a few green spots on 2 Ore coin. 2010 Krause is $100
1970 8 coin set in original soft plastic as issued. Slight PVC. 2010 Krause is $30
1973 7 coin set in original soft plastic as issued some PVC dulling. edges of softpac split and taped. 2010 Krause is $30
1974 6 coin set in original sandhill plastic as issued 2010 Krause is $45
1975 8 coin set in original sandhill plastic as issued. 2010 Krause is $75

All coins with PVC film should be able to be cleaned up with some acetone, but would require removal from the original packaging. Opinions on removing and conserving coins too.

Any help (PM or otherwise) with ascertaining realistic values in relation to the catalog values would be appreciated.

Thanks

    According to Krause 2011 the 1970 soft case is $100. The 1968 soft case is $1400. The rest haven't changed since 2010. Have you looked on ebay to check out prices there?

  • Thanks for the current Krause prices olmanjon.... I have not been able to locate anything of significance on ebay. a few sirtes have some of the sets at fixed offered pices. The '68 seems to be nowhere to be found with the searches I have attempted.
