regularguy Valued Member United States 187 Posts	Posted 06/29/2010 7:20 pm I saw in my latest coin catalog that the 2010 silver proof quarters are available now. I am wondering if the first year set, or first few year of sets will be as popular, or more popular than the silver State Quarters? What do you think? Report this Post to the Staff

Nazarene Valued Member United States 128 Posts	Posted 06/29/2010 8:12 pm I would say that to the general public the State Parks quarter series would be less popular that the State series due to less interest in the subject matter. States then State Parks, State Birds, State Flowers, State Songs, State Whatever else and on down the ladder of interest we go. IMO I know that doesn't exactly answer your question, but I would assume a proportionate decline in collector interest, based solely on the subject matter of the coins.

Collector popularity could increase as people appreciate them more than the cartoonish "arcade tokens" of the past series. I feel that there will be a high mintage of the proof sets (clad and silver) because so many people missed out on the 1999 quarters.

What do you think? I don't think that they'll be "as popular".....I think that there may be a "falling off" of the total estimated number of collectors that the State Quarters brought in. I do not think that the first year Set will be like the 1999 St. Qtr. Set in value. I think it does have some "potential" as a first year Set though....especially since it contains the new Shield Cents too. And the new Native Dollar...... I dunno....but there's a chance it could hold a "better than issue price" in value. Report this Post to the Staff
ACE Mike Valued Member United States 438 Posts	Posted 06/30/2010 7:10 pm Wasn't there supposed to be a series of five ounce silver replicas of the America the Beautiful Quarter series sold by the mint? I have been unable to find anything about them on the Mint website. Did they decide to scrap that plan? Mike Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 07/01/2010 2:24 pm They can't scrap the 5 ozers unless Congress changes the law. You just have to realize that the mint has never tried making coins that big and they have a lot of experimenting to do. (Yes they have made three inch medals but believe me it is NOT the same thing.) Report this Post to the Staff
Andrew289 Valued Member United States 470 Posts	Posted 07/01/2010 3:06 pm Ignoring the hijack and getting back on topic. Your apology acepted. I think that 5 years into the park series there will be some folks who will try to go back to pick up all the coins they missed. The proof set might double in price but I don't see it going through the roof. Report this Post to the Staff
