Coin Collecting - Bahamian Gold Proof Set


Expert: Brad Swain - 11/6/2009

Question
Hi, Brad!  Can you help me with current value of proof set, 1973 gold Bahamian set of $100 pc, $50 pc, $20 pc and $10 pc.  Sealed in plastic and housed in blue wooden box with Bahamian emblems.  Thank you!  Erin

Answer
Hi Erin, There were 1260 of these sets issued that year for an original price of $400. It contains .4919 of an ounce of gold. It may be worth about $550 depending on the price of gold and collector demand.
You might try Ebay.com for similar pieces for comparison.
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
Brad
