I knew they had the SF finish, but they have been the same metal content. Now that is different too.

We are going to have to start weighing the 2009s in change like the dang 1982s :)

Hey, thanks everybody.....now I know which 2009 cents are the 95% copper.

Cheers, Mark

Oh my I can just see the HSN of these issues they will go crazy!

Yes I feel all three of these sets will become like the 1999 proof sets and double in value fast.

That will be allot of coins CRAP more money to spend now I know me and I will have to get allot of each of these sets guess I will get a couple each month not sure how many to get but this will be a good years to get extra sets that is for sure.

That's just messed up - all you have to buy to get it ALL are one proof set, one mint set, and eight cents that you could buy on ebay for less than $5 total once they are all out. If that seems like being 'raped' to you, I'm just glad I don't go grocery shopping with you!

You mean this one?
