Franklin Mint collectibles are marketed as valuable items one can purchase as an investment in order to see the item's value appreciate over time. However, unfortunately for many owners of Franklin Mint dolls, collectible plates, glassware, diecast cars, silver ingots, coins, or medals, there is little chance of selling these mass-produced collectibles for more than what you originally paid for them.
While some sellers are trying to get around $200, or the original selling price, for Kate Middleton collectible dolls, most Franklin Mint dolls without their original box will sell for around $20 to $50.
