A little step away from proofs sets.
One 1964 p and d mint set.

Well, I miss counted. I actually backed up on proof sets. I missed counting a 1988 proof set I'm going to have to pick up. But this morning at the coin store picked up a 1995 proof set and one duplicate, just because it was the right price. A sealed 1959 proof set.
So I'm still at 5 away from having one proof set from each year 1959-2006.
Mark Stilson
May 13 2006, 10:04 PM
one 2005 proof set, down to 4 proof sets.
One 2001 silver eagle

one 1988 silver eagle

One 1958 proof set from my local dealer.
A jump back on date makes it at least one proof set from each year 1957 to 2006, but still 4 left to get.

You've gotten some nice goodies. Mint sets seem to make a lot of sense to me as a collection item. It's a great way to get one of each coin for a given year.
Mark Stilson
May 26 2006, 04:17 PM
I will be looking at more mint sets. Since I'm getting closer to my proof set goal. But today I picked up a 1956 proof set.

Back on the mint sets one 2002 mint set

One Statue of Liberty dollar and half dollar

Are you keeping your sets intact or breaking them up?
Mark Stilson
Jun 1 2006, 12:45 AM
Keeping them intact. I may end up splitting some duplicates. I.E. 1962 proof set, I've got three for the cameos in them. Hard to say right now.

I know I shouldn't of, but another 1957 sealed proof set. Just was too good of a deal. From my local coin dealer.

Jun 2 2006, 04:36 PM
Actually moving on my proof sets and down to being 3 sets away from having at least one from each year 1956 to 2006. One 1988 proof set.

Picked up a couple mid grade morgans, but they are year/mints I didn't have.

Got my 2006 mint set and a 1987 Prestige proof set with the Constitution dollar. And a 1981 proof set. Not sure where the original 1981 set went to. All I could find was the box, so this was a replacement.
