On your next visit, check for the 2015 Presidential dollar set (that would make jbuck happy).


Right! There was another smaller coin shop about a block away that I'll have to check out sometime. Going to have to start a checklist so I don't get duplicates.

Now I'm thinking I messed up by getting the quarters and Presidential dollar proof sets. Now if I get the regular proof set for those years they come with the quarters and dollars already. So I'll end up with duplicates.

Whether you collect coins or stamps, when it comes to common modern-era material, you're going to end up with duplicates from time to time. It's just a fact of life.

Give yourself a break and don't worry about it. You'll eventually liquidate them and use the proceeds towards coins you need in the future.

Modern proofs certainly are beautiful coins.

I'm going to be using the CAPS Albums with Air-tites. Haven't gotten any yet so I'm just going to leave the coins in the cases until I do.

I was able to find a partial 2007 Proof coin set on ebay, so at least now my 2007 Proof set is complete

Just picked up a 1999 Silver Proof set on ebay for $40 + shipping....we shall see. Slowly chipping away at what I've missed over the years and recovering from my loss due to a break in 2011.
