A 1963 US proof set, a 1988 US proof set are the sum of my US proofs. Then theres the US-Philippines - a proof 1903 half centavo (cleaned) and a proof 1904 centavo. That's about it.
an uninterrupted run of proof sets from 95 to present plus most of the 70's some 60's an 85 an 89, some other proof singles like the 99 sba, etc.
About 10-19 at the moment, sold a bunch awhile back unfortunatly. Love proof coins though, especially the older ones. Much nicer IMHO than the ones today. Phoenix
I don't know why, but I really don't like proof sets. I guess it just seems like cheating, in a way. Yeah, I'm weird.
The only proof sets I have are the ones I bought for the kids and the wife for their birth years.....1971,1992, 1995 and 2001. The year I was born the mint didnt have a proof set, it was a special mint set, 1965. I also have last years (2007) proof sets, regular and silver. I dont own any individual proof coins. Like rotobeast, I dont really care for them either, unless they're cameo Franklins of course. I do like those but dont own any.
All the sets since 1956 to present plus some Silver sets and a '06 Gold Buffalo (My Fav) and some single coins and 5-06 ASE 20anniv sets(w/2 proofs in each). I like proofs for their beauty and clarity. Bruce
I prefer a few nice coins to a mountain of lesser ones. I go for proof type coins. Got some pretty cool ones.
I did not stop to think - did you mean proof sets or singles? Actually now that I think about either way I have more than 90, unless of course you don't count proof bullion coins. I do have a couple of proof IHC and shield nickels.
i didnt want to actually count each individual coin, so i counted each proof set as 1 either way, i think the numbers posted should be under 100, 100-200, 200-300 lol i think most of us have more then 90
As many of you know, I like AG/G coins, but I have a 1979, 1987 and 1976 proof set and boy, they sure are pretty. Every once in a while, I'll pull them out and just admire them.
are you sure they are proof, or just uncirculated? as far as i know they did not make proofs that year. as far as my proofs i only have a 1964 proof set and a 1971S silver proof ike dollar.
