Lovely proof collection, thanks for sharing!

I'm a huge fan of proof Franklins (especially when found without milk spots). Does your '74 Eisenhower have some toning on the obverse; photo seems like there could be some cool color if rotated in hand. What does the '98 Premier set look like?

 

@CoinCorgi nice collection. Now you have to put them back in their homes where they will be safe.

 

Thanks. I like the sets, but they are not a prefered focus of my collection (I much prefer circulated coins).

Anyway...yes the '74 Ike is toning on top of the common haze.

I don't think I have ever opened the Premier set. Hmmm.

 

Ahh yes; the dreaded haze... Three of my four brown box Ikes are also hazy.

 

Great collection of proofs. I too like circulated coins but one can't deny the beauty of a pristine proof sometimes.

 

I like silver proof sets. Beautiful coins with intrinsic value of silver added.
