Questions & Comments

Very nice! I've always loved this set. A few months ago, I finished putting together the entire 28-coin set.

This is not something generally found on Listia, so I hope it does very well for you.

One of my favorite Olympic sets and I think a little more special since the time they were minted due to a lot of them being melted after for the silver...I was nervous about starting it at 499, I think the current start was pretty fair...I appreciate the words of encouragement :)

It's more than fair. I see you have another one up and someone has already bid on it. They (should) go well beyond the starting bid.

And you're right, a lot of sets were made, but the sterling blanks the RCM used were so high quality that a lot of them have been melted to make jewelry.
