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) Report this Post to the Staff
CoinsKelly Pillar of the Community United States 3453 Posts	Posted 01/31/2013 10:27 pm 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?

ghostrider Pillar of the Community United States 1116 Posts	Posted 02/02/2013 02:04 am 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. Report this Post to the Staff
cptbilly Pillar of the Community United States 2088 Posts	Posted Yesterday 12:49 pm My current proof set collection begins in 1953. Considering an extension of my collection back to 1950. Am seeing plenty of 1952's in Capital plastic holders, numerous offerings in the OGP box format, and several TPG graded sets. . .the graded sets have sequential serial numbers on the slabs-- a good indication the five coins were submitted as a package. Any thoughts on graded / certified vs. OGP / after market holders ? Seems apparent the condition of the set will dictate the price. Thanks. Have a good Labor Day.

Dearborn Moderator United States 105104 Posts	Posted Yesterday 1:34 pm For the 1950s proof sets, I prefer OGP. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 20027 Posts	Posted Yesterday 10:35 pm Not many were produced and most of them have been separated for individual coins. I still have this one. I should probably sell it, just sitting around for decades now. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Edited by BadThad Yesterday 10:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff
