Quote: I like how the mint kept the same characters....the main guy seems to be aging well... I'm even more amazed that the dog is still alive, he must be over a hundred in dog years. Although its good the see the new hires from the artist infusion program working on new items. Report this Post to the Staff
Tpatna Pillar of the Community United States 1626 Posts	Posted 06/09/2008 10:47 pm So did anyone else see this artical in Coin World? Does anyone think these are sleeping giants or was this a push to buy these sets...? Most of these sets are Silver Half Dollars, but the Smithsonian is a Proof Silver Dollar and the Black Revolutionary War Patriots is a Unc Silver Dollar....Wonder why they did Dollars for those two sets....

Obviously, some of the commem programs are more educational than others They are listed in the 2009 RedBook pg325. The Olympic swimming and soccer are crazy expensive since the total mintage for each coin was ~50,000 Report this Post to the Staff
eaglefoot Pillar of the Community United States 6326 Posts	Posted 06/10/2008 4:05 pm Well I'll be dang !!... That IS interesting......I was only aware of this years "young collector" stuff too ! So, should we all just buy EVERYTHING that comes down the pike, so that we'll ensure ourselves to be lucky one of these years with something that turns out to be special that we wouldn't have thought so at the time ?....hummmm?......Did anybody get this years "young collector" stuff ?
