LibertyEagle20 Pillar of the Community United States 1260 Posts	Posted Yesterday 11:25 am Thanks for sharing your set, it's looking really good. I'm not sure what you mean by crazy shield prices. They are SUPER common. I'd wager you could pull them all (2010 through 2025) in a box or two at absolute most. Most crh just throw them back so odds are you can find some good AU/BU examples for face value. Then you'd have the complete set since business strikes ended with 2025. Just my Two Cents but if you can get pennies from the bank it would be super easy to fill those holes! Edited by LibertyEagle20 Yesterday 11:38 am Report this Post to the Staff

Just my Two Cents but if you can get pennies from the bank it would be super easy to fill those holes! Proofs, my friend. I buy on ebay primarily, and prices constantly fluctuate, depending on the scenario. And at the moment, they are ridiculously priced due to the US mint stopping production of the cent. I wouldn't pay 30-40 dollars for most proof coins, especially clad ones, let alone a Shield cent. 40-80 dollars for a 2025/2026 proof shield cent? Yeah, that's a huge no. Saw a listing for a RAW 2026 proof Shield cent. Absolutely ridiculous. I'm content with stopping the series at 2009 anyways. Good enough for me. *Lincoln cents 1909-2009 collection* Eisenhower/Anthony dollars Liberty nickels Buffalo nickels Jefferson nickels I have a special affinity for nickels.

LibertyEagle20 Pillar of the Community United States 1260 Posts	Posted Yesterday 12:38 pm Ah my bad, I read the initial post stating business strikes. I don't blame you one bit regarding the proof shields, I wouldnt buy them either. If anything you'd be better buying full silver proof sets and then take the penny from there.

jbuck Moderator United States 194220 Posts	Posted Yesterday 1:41 pm Ah, the proofs! That is where they get you. I buy the sets direct from the Mint annually to fill all the holes, so I am not paying too much attention to secondary market prices.

Humanist1287 Pillar of the Community United States 1188 Posts	Posted Today 6H 3M ago Yeah! A lot of avid collectors do. I don't because I don't collect all coins, so, for me, it would be kind of silly. *Lincoln cents 1909-2009 collection* Eisenhower/Anthony dollars Liberty nickels Buffalo nickels Jefferson nickels I have a special affinity for nickels.

seamonkey5150 Pillar of the Community United States 1028 Posts	Posted Today 3H 13M ago I think the crazy prices for the 2025 is because of it being technically the last production cent, so everyone wanted one. Also due to the fact that they didn't announce it being the last year until late, after the regular 2025 proof set was issued. Also due to the problems with the 2025 silver proof set having toning issues and alot were returned and the Mint pulled the remaining ones. The 2026 is crazy price considering you could only get them from the Mint's Uncirculated and Proof sets which they doubled and tripled the prices and the fact that it's the SemiQ dual date, so everyone wants one.

You would have to sell the excess. Not fun. This is why the parts are worth more than the hole.

Humanist1287 Pillar of the Community United States 1188 Posts	Posted Today 1H 49M ago Yeah, so... Given all that, I'll definitely pass! I've spent enough on the Lincoln Cent series. Lol. I've probably spent nearly 1000+ dollars on collecting the 1909-2009 era alone. *Lincoln cents 1909-2009 collection* Eisenhower/Anthony dollars Liberty nickels Buffalo nickels Jefferson nickels I have a special affinity for nickels.
