I moved your thread to the section for discussion of mint sets. Here are my proof sets.

I can't wait for GR58 to display his vast collection here!
Personally, I have proof and silver proof from 1999 to 2016. If I have a minute over the next day or two I'll pull them out and get a pic.

No pictures here either. Have both the regular, 1950-2016, and the silver sets, 1992-2016. My Mother also liked the proof sets, and we would order a set each year starting in the early '60's. I played catch up 15 plus years ago, and got the ones from the '50's. I've been tempted for some of the '40's, but haven't made the jump yet.

Nice sets, clairhardesty!  Are they still in OGP or have you sprung them?

These sets have all been removed from the original mylar and are currently kept in individual hard plastic flips. These images are scans, originally done at 7200 DPI and reduced for posting here. I kept them in their original packaging for a while but since all modern sets are not sealed, I decided to go that route with my older ones to get top quality pictures. As a side note, I have a 2009 Northern Mariana Islands silver proof quarter with a serious die error (the result of a mishap during final mirror field polishing) that may well be the only one to escape the mint. Since I first posted about the coin in late 2010 (I did not notice the error until I looked at the hi-res scans), I have not seen any reports of another coin like it.  *** Edited by Staff to add images to post. ***

Nice sets.  Almost all of mine have been cracked for Dansco albums, so I have nothing to show.

At one time or another I have owned every proof set from 1968 to 2016, but as soon as I get one I break it up and put the coins into my albums. However, this is the closest I have to a proof set run. My 1979 type 1  My 1979 type 2  My 1981 type 1  My 1981 type 2  Those two missing KHD's are proving a little difficult to find. Maybe the next coin show will have something.

You were missing part of the IMG tag. I fixed it before I realized you had already posted again.

Quote: I can't wait for GR58 to display his vast collection here! I hate to disappoint ... I never thought about taking pictures of a year run for proof sets. And recently I have boxed up a lot of coins and put into storage. Including a lot of proof sets ... I might have to start buying more sets ....  Let me see if I can find some pictures that will sort of fit into this thread   Prestige sets .. I think I am just missing the 1996. I have the early ones but not in this picture  50's and 60's proof sets in envelopes, with proof Franklins  Most of my proofs I buy on a whim .. to fill albums. Then just put them into boxes, until I do another set.     Might be a good project for the future, try and put a set together. But then I might just want to break them open ... ThreeLui looks very nice
