From what I see it looks good.

And looks like it was a lot of work to put all that
information together.

In addition to the sets CelticKnot mentions. I am
curious where the Special Mint Sets (SMS) would fit in.
SMS for 1965, 1966 and 1967.

The Red Book lists the SMS sets separately, but I would just put them on both lists with an asterisk.

On the 1936 - 42 proof sets you might want to include a * note that the proof coins in those years were sold individually by the Mint and the mintage figure given is that of the lowest mintage coin and represents the the MAXIMUM number of sets that could be assembled. On the page for each of those years you might also include the actual mintage of each coin for that year.

for example


Mintage: 3,837*
Coins Per Set: 5
Face Value: 91¢
Original Issue Price: $1.89

Set Contains:
(1) 1936 Proof Lincoln Cent mintage 5,569
(1) 1936 Proof Buffalo nickel mintage 4,420
(1) 1936 Proof Mercury dime mintage 4,130
(1) 1936 Proof Washington quarter mintage 3,837
(1) 1936 Proof Walking Liberty half dollar mintage 3,901

* coins sold individually, set mintage is maximum number of possible sets.

The 36-42 pages are fixed.

I actually did the legacy sets but forgot to add them to the main table. That's done.

Ok, the limited sets...

Does anyone know the mintages and issue prices for the 2012 and 2013?

Also, the 2015 set has vaporized from the mint site, has anyone heard of it being nuked?

Issue price for 2012 was $149.95.
Issue price for 2013 was $139.95.

From a couple articles I have squirreled away, the product limit for both was 50k. And according to CoinNews.net:

"...the [2012] set debuting Nov. 27, 2012 and selling out April 24, 2013 with sales of 50,169."
http://www.coinnews.net/2013/12/12/...r-proof-set/

"...the 2013 set which sold out at 47,971."

Looks pretty Good!

Quick question, what is the difference between the 2 varieties for the 1979 Proof set? Which one is more scarce ?

The S mint mark is what is different.

The first 1979-S mint mark (variety 1) looks more like a blob. The second 1979-S mint mark (variety 2) looks more like an S.

The 1979-S variety 2 mint mark is the same as the 1981-S variety 1 mint mark. The 1981-S variety 2 mint mark is even clearer.

In both cases, the variety 2 is scarcer.
