well i guess its just a 1964 nickle? im waiting on the package to arrive with all the above well i looked at the picture and your right no s sorry i thaught they were all s mints
If these are all proofs, these are a dime a dozen. Don't expect huge premiums for them. Personally they're so easy to get from proof sets for rather cheap that I wouldn't likely pay more than a dollar or two for each.
Proof coins were struck in Philadelphia up until 1968 when San Francisco started striking proofs. The nickels, $1-$2 each, these can be found in most bargain bins for a $1-$1.50. The dimes, about $1.25 each. Quarters about $1.50 each. The half, $2.50-$3. Again, many of these can be found in bargain bins.
As dsmith mentioned, completed auctions on eBay. But I also keep track of what dealers in my area ask for them as well.
yeah he even threw in a 2011 proof nickle for my daaughters birth year only a buck a proof i think a may order more he has tons of lots on ebay
Most proof sets are relatively inexpensive. You may find your $ goes farther if you just get the proof sets.. i dunno. food for thought.
You could also check your redbook. It may not be completely accurate, but for clad proofs it's probably close. And you might want to check out this offering from mintproducts.com: http://www.mintproducts.com/modern_proof-coin-bonanza_priced-under-wholesale.html I've ordered it a few times, and while they aren't all PR69 or PR70s, you'll get a good selection and a LOT of coins. I've filled many Dansco holes ordering this. It's all modern, but the last time I ordered I got a few Ikes and even a 1968 Kennedy. So there's some that are a little older.
In addition to hitting ebay, PM me. I've got a bunch of proof years that I'm not very interested in keeping, and would be willing to offload. I inherited a bunch, as well as got a bunch more on lot auctions where I was buying for other specific sets. The proof coins are nice, and if you're into collecting them for another reason than profit, you'll be happy with them.
Also, looks like they have a similar blowout for "lower quality" proof sets: http://www.mintproducts.com/proof-sets-at-wholesale-bid-as-little-as-2.25_per-set.html this might not be a bad option either, only thing is you can't choose which year, they pick, but for that price you're going to be hard-pressed to get cheaper in general on whole sets.
In every category for every coin, it has the proofs listed along with the business strikes. Mintages are in parentheses for these.
