Trinidad Again on the Rise

1983 Trinidad mint set at $199 and rising! I know I seem to be the only one getting excited, but this set has NO silver in it, and had an issue price that was about $30 or so.

According to Krause, total mintage was 281 Sets.

I have the 1973 set which has .8833 ounces of silver in the 5 dollar coin. Has this set gone up at all?

I believe it would be bullion only but that with the $10 coin would give you about 2.0 oz and nearly 80 in bullion! Nice!!!

Who is pursuing these sets? -Dan

There seem to be a number of bidders each time these come up on ebay. Don't know who they are though.

Seem to be two or three subsets of these Franklin Mint coins; the 1981-1985 years of more pursued countri.es (Belize, British Virgin Isl. regular sets - not the huge silver multi-coin sets , Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Panama, Papua, Trinidad), the other years 1973-1980, and then the other countries.
