I recently bought a 1961 proof sete because I thought it would be cool to have a set from the year I was born. Reading these comments, I'm glad I wasn't born ten years earlier!

Re: 1952 mint state coins in cardboard holder
I have a set that I thought was a mint set but was informed that the six coins may be specimen coins because the Canadian mint did not start issuing mint set until 1954 will that make them more valuable?
I am a newbie to all of the jargon so not too sure of myself yet

I know that pain Perfect cure: the 1965-67 Canada Prooflike Sets. Why settle for one lonely 40% JFK when you can have four 80% Silver coins? (I believe all the coins in the '67 PL-Sets are 80% Ag) |

Alright DNA, now I am intrigued. I have always had to settle for the SMS for my birth year so maybe now I won't feel so gypped if I supplement the SMS with additional coins. Hmmm, buy more coins...how can I argue with that?  |

When it comes to proof sets for the year you were born I might have it the worst. I was born in 1983.

Being an old man born during the war years I only have to worry about getting 15 coins, and none of them are extra special. However the good looking ones are always expensive to look at.
