    Yes, some Franklin Mint sets are worth something, but potential selling prices vary greatly. Certain sets of dolls, three-dimensional decorative plates, bisque statues, glass paperweights and die-cast cars may be in demand among collectors, leading to considerably high selling prices. Generally, Franklin Mint coin sets are not worth more than the value of the precious metals they are made from due to the large quantities of them sold. Consider consulting a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer to learn how much your collection may be worth. Shop a variety of Franklin Mint collectibles on 1stDibs.
