barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5821 Posts	Posted 08/22/2023 11:50 am I am getting one because I have been getting them for my son every year since he was born. He is now 18 and off to college, so this will be the final set I buy for him. Report this Post to the Staff

GLB49 Bedrock of the Community United States 25541 Posts	Posted 08/22/2023 3:04 pm I thought about it but I'm going to pass on the silver proof sets. I would need three sets and $390 plus tax (7.25%} and shipping will buy me a lot of 1 oz silver coins.

I would need three sets and $390 plus tax (7.25%} and shipping will buy me a lot of 1 oz silver coins. Not a bad idea. From my point of view... The cent, nickel, and dollar are duplicates from the clad set; and I bought the silver quarter set in the spring. I am certain I can get the silver dime and half dollar at a coin show down the road, which hopefully will be less than $50 ($130 minus the $80 I paid for the quarters). To be clear, I am cracking and filling Dansco holes, so intact sets are not a requirement.

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 24858 Posts	Posted 08/22/2023 7:25 pm I already bought the silver quarter proof set, and soon they'll be releasing the "special limited edition proof set" that includes everything in the Silver Proof Set plus an ASE. I'll wait for that one. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94584 Posts	Posted 08/23/2023 5:49 pm Yep! So now I'm wondering how many more rotated halves there will be. So lets see when the others start trickling in..
