Congratulations Sets are they worth collecting? 0

[Alberto]

Evening everyone. I’m a bit new to collecting and was wondering if there was a benefit to collecting the Congratulations Set? Given that they are the same proof coins and just carry the name. Any thoughts?

Wrong wording.

There is a dealer on eBay who just sold all of his 226 sets for $139.00 a set so I think that would be a good average price as to what they are selling for now.

Hard to say if there is any benefit to collecting them, nobody can say for sure if the prices will go up or down in the future

I was thinking there was one year that was valuable but the rest I believe are nothing much to speak of.

Are they the same? I doubt it. Typically, they contain only one quarter, not all 5 from that year.

I was referring to these. Same as the regular proof coins just branded as the congratulations set.

From my perspective, I've seen some people want the different packaging, and paperwork examples, and other people just want the coin.  I guess if you like the packaging, then yes, it's worth collecting, if you don't care then just buy the coin.  If you're buying to resell later for a profit, then no, they're not worth collecting.

I don't think that most of them have gone up. The one exception is the 2017. It had an S and a low mintage.
