: I have a 1977 8 pc Barbados proof set. Includes $10, $5 coins. I am having trouble finding comparables online. After hours of searching I have found several other years in this set but not 1977. Is this a rare set, how can I find out more about it?

The Krause catalog lists the mintage as 5015 (about half the amount as the previous year) with an issue price of $55 and a current market value of $35.
The market value puts it at about melt value on the two largest coins.
Mintage might be low but demand is even lower thus the low value.
