That would be a nice project to get the older Proof Cent coins.
Starting at 1950 is a good place to start, just remember that there are no proofs from 1943 to 1949 - they will pick up at 1942 and back to 1936, then they stop again. THEN from 1916 back to 1909 for some very rare and expensive proofs.
Good luck on this. (I only managed to get proofs back to 1936 - didn't bother with the older ones.
