http://mintnewsblog.com/2014/07/2013-mint-set-and-2013-proof-set-sold-out/ With the 2013 US Mint Clad Proof Set only being a slightly higher mintage than the "rare" 2012 US Mint Clad Proof Set, anybody have any guess what the price will be soon on these sets?
I believe we will continue to see new lows in the future, so I wouldn't be putting your retirement savings in new proof sets. People have been bragging up "low mintage" modern proof sets since the 80's, and the mintages just keep dropping. To me, 800,000 is an awful lot of collectors wanting to own one before they ever become "scarce". Like most modern mint products, might be best to flip them short term and buy them up cheaper later if you wish to own one. Just my opinion though.
Not much more, if any, than what they're going for now. If anything, it'll drag down the price of the 2012 set.
It's not like anyone was busting the door down to buy these things. Time was if you didn't buy the set from the mint in the calendar year of production you were out of luck. Now the mint allows for sales way after the year has ended.
