RE: Commonwealth Games Collectible Coins

Never know when a Mint issue set becomes a hot collectors item.
The 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver had special issues of Commemorative coin sets out in special Olympic logoed packaging. I wasn't into coins and stacking then but looking back the demand was good but the value was mediocre because they were far overpriced compared to normal Mint issue and were in large quantities.
On the other hand, my Father left me a pair of 1991 Canadian Numismatic Convention issued coin sets that were no different than standard mint issued sets.
It was the envelope they came in with the picture of the new BC Convention center.
It now goes for 5X the original issue price each.
Only issued at the convention!
That's numismatics.

Thanks for sharing @scooter77
