I will receive a display of a set of my choosing from the sets currently in Standard. Which one(s) do you think will have the higher value over the medium and long term?
Or is there one of them that I can sell for a decent price even in the short term?
Just so we're clear, display = booster box, right?
Take a look at the Market Index (latest one, as of me posting this, is here). AER currently has the highest box value, and you might be able to flip your free box for over a hundred. Depends a lot on your local shops - what are they selling boxes for?
In terms of long-term value, I'd look at the Masterpieces. BFZ currently has the best Masterpieces, and that's probably going to be true for the long-term - I don't see Kaladesh Inventions suddenly supplanting fetchlands. Keep that box sealed, though.
Honestly, I'd go for AER and look for the short-term flip. Holding boxes is an idea that caught on too well, and these days everyone has a box or two of something that they're trying to make into an investment which is going to be tough because the supply is so high. Boxes just don't appreciate much anymore, and won't until we get another playerbase explosion.
