Value Of 1991 Proof Quarter?

you're right => just a "frosted proof" ... nix the silver part ... but I'm sticking with $30 (but of course, I often pay through the nostrils for my coins! *sigh*)

Assuming it's in an ICCS flip and grades the usual PF-67, I think you'd be looking at spending $30-40, quite a bit more if it was PF-68. It's the star of the 1991 set, and I can't see anyone breaking a set to sell one for $15.

Here's one that sold recently and another ,and another,and another,anotheranother ,and another ,and a pair and in a bunch including one silver '96
I don't pull price estimates from a hat

I believe that even at $15-$20 they are way overpriced.They are not rare at all in proof sets. 132,000 '91 proof sets were issued, compare that to '94 and '95 proof sets with mintages of 104,000 and 102,000.The price of '91 proofs is based on hype and lack of collector knowledge,not on rarity.

Here is an original roll (NOT proof) going for $474.00.

I apparently follow the same approach as DBM when I'm trying to determine the current value of modern coins (and sometimes traditional coins as well) -- check completed ebay auctions that actually sold.

Once you have a look at a group of completed auctions, you begin to get a reasonable sense of what collectors are actually willing to pay for a particular coin. Dealer price lists and instant purchase options on on-line sites are fine, but they often can be higher than what collectors actually pay for a coin when it is allowed to seek its "natural" value via auction.

After looking at the completed sales for the complete 1991 sets, I am not surprised at the auction prices of the 25c by itself. Several full 1991 proof sets sold for under $30, some under $25.
