IamCam Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 10/21/2016 08:07 am I am not sure this is the right place to ask this question, if not, please steer me straight. I was wondering which online sites do others use to buy silver proof sets? Specifically, I want to purchase the America the Beautiful National Parks silver proofs, in original packing, starting with 2010. Of course, I'd like to get a good deal but don't want to get something inauthentic. I realize they can be found on ebay, but are there specific dealers you recommend? Thanks for any advice.

Check ebay for sellers with good feedback and you should be fine. Look for set sets of 5 in the lens. When I am looking for modern coins I always check out Dave's Coins as well. He has a vast selection. Report this Post to the Staff

jgfindring Rest in Peace United States 1380 Posts	Posted 10/21/2016 10:16 pm I would give one warning about silver proof sets on ebay. When I got back into collecting I had missed the first six years of the Statehood Quarters and went to ebay to pick up the years that I had missed. I wanted two sets of each, and wanted both the full sets and quarters only. After I managed to acquire them all I noticed some looked a little off. Having just learned the tissue test I checked, and of my 18 or so ebay purchased silver sets, four were clad proofs put into silver proof set lens (they will pop open with just a fingernail). Three had come from the same seller, and when I complained he just banned me from buying from him and ignored me. As I hadn't noticed until I had already left feedback I had no recourse.

IamCam Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 10/22/2016 07:45 am Thanks for the advice as well as the tale of caution. This is the first I am learning about the tissue test! I will be using it, tho I am sorry that happened to you, jg. I have seen Dave's Coins on ebay, so I will check his inventory for what I am looking for.
