I have looked all over the internet for the past couple hours and can not find any information about it. It is in a wooden case with doors that open to the coins inside that are in plastic 'cards' with information about each coin written on each one. It has green marble looking pillars on each side of the doors. Sorry for my ignorance it is the best description I can give. I'm sure its supposed to resemble a government building or something.
What is the value of The Millennium Coin Collection from the Franklin mint?
Franklin Mint items have never done well on the secondary market. They charged to much for the items. They also didn't really make the coins and mostly medals, for the coin collector. They went after the history buff and people who thought since it is silver, it has to go up in value. It did, bit noway near what was paid for them. They also took real inexpensive world coins and packaged them nice and charged outrages prices. They had great packaging, but items of little value or over priced items. You may not be able to find out what they are worth, because few people would be willing to buy them. Private mint issues and buying on TV, are two things to keep away from when it comes to coins. I do believe there is a book out there on Franklin mint items, I don't know if it has a price guide or not. Check your library. I wish I had better news for you.
Reply:taiping knows what he,s talking about. just stay away from the Franklin mint.
Reply:I agree with "taiping".
I never collect anything the Franklin mint has to offer. If it is not from the "government" itself within any certain country, I do not waste my money on it.
Hopefully the library will have something you or at least a guesstimate.
