To think this set back in the height of State Quarter collecting frenzy cost nearly $1000.

Quote:Those State Quarters look great in proof silver. Thank you, Brandmeister. This was an ebay purchase and all three sets are in excellent condition including the boxes.

Nice recent additions, everyone!
I do like the silver proof sets, GLB49. I bought the 1999 proof sets (both regular and silver) from the U.S. Mint, and that was my first coin purchase after a break of about 12 years I took from coin collecting. I still get the silver sets every year from the mint.
I got the regular sets from 1999 through 2021 and decided to stop. One of these days I'll be selling all the regular sets, though I know I'll get a whole lot less than what I paid for them!

Quote:A 1986-S Ellis Island half dollar, a 1971-S Eisenhower $1 silver uncirculated coin, and an 1896 Barber quarter. I wonder which one I like the best?

You will have your chance at it, Jbuck. I picked that one as the prize for my 1000th post contest. Although I imagine you've got quite a stack of pristine 40% silver Eisenhowers from the early 70's in mint state.

One in the Dansco, one in a PCGS slab, and one in an NGC slab.

GLB49, that is correct. I remember seeing Numismatic News sales listings from 2006 or so selling this set for $600-$800. The '99 clad proof set was going for nearly $200.
