Print Page - [SOLD] SEALED 1963 Proof Set(Silver, last Franklin Half)w/envelope=2.5 BTC

ITEM SOLD
Hey everybody,
I have a 1963 Proof Set from the Philadelphia Mint. The Half Dollar, Quarter, and Dime are 90% Silver. It is still sealed in its original packaging-these babies haven't seen the light of day since 1963. I also have the envelope as well as information card from the mint. Although, they are very slightly damaged due to old age and whatever else (note in pictures).
What makes this Proof Set different from any other year is that it (1963) is the last year the Benjamin Franklin Half Dollar was issued. After that and to the present day it is Kennedy on the Half Dollar. I bought this a while back from a guy who sold Mint Sets-that was his thing. He didn't know much about dates, so I bought this one for the same price as any pre-'65 (90% Silver) set (Yeah, Buddy!)
What I STRONGLY recommend is that you send the Half-Dollar to be Certified. It is in literally mint condition (maybe that's where the term comes from? haha). Certified its value would soar-its a Proof and its flawless. Any certified coin like this with a high score sells for A LOT more than if the coin was not sent in for certification.
Why don't I just get it certified? It costs money-money I don't have. But hopefully you do, make yourself some money.

I am asking 2.5 BTC for the Set and everything else, mailed to you.

Thanks!
