    From eBay:
    2019 is selling for about $20 (I bought a half and dime combo for $30)
    2020 is selling for about $50 (a couple lower from a lucky BIN)
    2021 is selling for about $60

    Prices are from sold auctions/BIN.

    All are raw/uncertified and 99% silver. What gives? Just supply and demand?

    That does seem a bit high. Graded I could see. However, from one who follows the spot market daily, anything silver has jumped lately. Modern comemmoratives, common date with high mintage for example, have gone from $20-25 to $30-40 in the past six months. Some over fifty, once thirty. What I've noticed on these, over the past month many more are listed without the original packaging than prior, which indicates selling to the bullion crowd.

    In late 2020 the price of the silver proof sets at the Mint jumped from around $65 to $105. With the $105 price pretty much split between four silver coins in the set the lions share is going to be in the half dollar, so $50 to $60 is to be expected.

    After some time (a few years) wouldn't the 3 different dates become the same value?

    Probably, as long as the high prices don't result in a significant reduction in the number of coins sold. Most of the 2020's were sold before the price increase so I'm sure eventually they will drop down close to the 2019's. But what will the final mintage of the 2021's be? If it is significantly lower don't expect the 2021's to come down for a long time.

    Most recent sales figures are
    2019 412,508 silver sets
    2020 313,249 silver sets
    2021 207,515 silver sets

    I was a slow starter with the Silver Proof Sets. I started with the 2009 S set at $57.90 to the 2021 set for $105. The number of coins in the earlier set up to the 2020 Silver Proof Sets had about 7 silver coins. I haven't looked at my 2021 set, but I think they only had 2 quarters? The Tuskegee Airmen quarter and the new 2021 quarter. Is that correct? Talk about getting gyped by the USM in 2021! I'm sure that's not the only coins issued this year that we are getting less for the same money. Actually, it's not the same money. $57.90 in 2009 and $105 for 2021.

    Two quarters plus the dime and half dollar, so four coins this year instead of 7.
