So, I am starting a US
State Quarter collection.
I have decided to collect Brilliant Uncirculated P and D quarters in a nice DANSCO album.
And then collect the 10 Proof Sets (1999 through 2009) and put them in a nice proof set box that holds 10 proof boxes.
For the P and D BU quarters, I am looking on
ebay and purchasing
State Quarter sets in the "mint cello" wrappers, which seems to indicate that they are brand new and unused. And that is going well.
But for the proof sets, I am finding pretty good options on
ebay and at local coin shows. But sometimes, I seem them listed as "Deep Cameo Proofs". Often just the "individual coins", but sometimes the whole proof set.
What, exactly, is a "Deep Cameo Proof" and is it really any more valuable or collectible then just a regular proof? Or is it just an extra shiny proof?
I just want to try to spend my money wisely on my collection. I don't want to waste money on things that aren't really important, but I also don't want to pass up a good potential if it is there.
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
Regards,
Michael
