Title: Masterpieces in silver
Post by: interest on December 31, 2012, 09:09:56 PM
I just watched a 1991 Masterpieces in silver sell on ebay for $108.00
$32.00 below issue price.
That's one of my favourite Masterpieces in silver sets.

I have put all my 1991 coins from the Masterpeices set into my Decimal collection.
They look sensational on the pages with the other uncirculated and proof coins :good:

The 91 set is nice. I have a couple, there's not really a market for them too much above bullion so I pick them up when I can.
