What are your opinion for the 2007/2008 proof sets.
These two years will have more coins in them than any other set.
Will these become as valuable as the 1999 silver sets?
My opinion is I feel because these two years will be unusual they will go up in price allot within five years.
What do you think?

You make a good point about these two years this hobby has so many ups and downs we can never be sure. I made a big mistake about the 99 sets I will just get these because you never know.

I guess it all depends on how many they produce...

I have a weird feeling that the 2007 sets, and the Montana quarter are going to do something. Just a weird feeling. I want to purchase a silver and clad set, and a BU example of each State Quarter for this year. Just me. My Two Cents. Phoenix

Any word on how they'll be packaged? All 15 coins (did I count right?) in 1 set?

I sure can't give advice on what to buy or what value will be - can only opine to "buy what you like!" I've just always been fascinated by what I perceive as the beauty of coins. As far as the 2007 proof set, according to US Mint website there are 14 coins total, and release is scheduled for "May/June."

Hello Everyone,
I checked the US Mint website and We are going to have to wait until late May early June for this year's Proof Set.
Why do we have to wait that LONG?

I would assume the reason for the delay is packaging problems. I know that the US Mint wanted a proof set case that would permit the viewing of the edge lettering.

As far as I know, the sac dollar will still be in the proof set and I beleive the prez dollars will be in their own proof set.

Well I care because I would love to have the Presidental Dollar coins in Proof. I prefer to buy the coins in one set instead of separately but if that's the case I will make do.

JUST SAY NO TO PREZ DOLLARS! LOL! Already enough prezzies on our coins. Let's just say our coins are saturated prezzies!

14 coins in the 2007 proof set. cent nickel dime 5 State Quartershalf dollar 5 Dollar coins The delay is due to the problems in San Francisco with the edge lettering on the Prez. Dollars. The 2009 set will be just as large or larger. It will contain the 4 lincoln cents and maybe the 6 territory quarters.

Ah yes, now I remember that! The proof edge lettering is going to be applied with the collar, not a separate edge press. That is the reason why the the edge lettering on the proofs will be oriented in one direction on all of the coins.

The proof sets and uncirculated coin sets are always to have all the circulated coins in them that were minted for that year.
