I wouldn't be so worried about the lint and stuff, look for scratches and flaws. Coin collectors, or rather the more serious/numismatic ones...
Word of warning to those who are interested in the 2010 silver proof sets. Silver has gone up, so I think they will be suspending sales again.
Spoke too soon, they are back on the market. I'm going to call them and see if I can change my order to the 2010s and hold out for the 2011s....
I do wonder if the Mint will be allowing the purchase of 2010s now that the spot price has dropped.
Trust me when I say I wished I was paying more attention before they had suspended the sales on the 2010s. I bought 10 sets of the 2011s in...
Taking into consideration what yakpoo has said and his sales report, I'm going to have to jump the gun and order another 10 sets of the 2011s...
Might have to put in another order for more 11s tomorrow if the mint doesn't suspend them.
Whooohoo! Things are looking better as the year ends. I should have been greedy and ordered more. Oh well, 5 of each is good enough.
Send me a PM when that happens. LOL, I don't wanna be left in the dust.
IMO, no. The US Mint requires that everything is shipped back... I bought 10 sets. 5 of each, a few of my sets have the spots and toning on...
Got my set, the US Mint is working quick to get these out. Few of the dollar coins have spotting and so on but I guess those don't matter as much....
I suggest you use the search option on the site. I've ordered a few times on Provident, they are pretty good. Much better pricing compared to APMEX.
Thanks for clearing that up. If I have more funds, I'll prolly order a few more of the 2010s since the numbers are looking good.
Pardon my ignorance but I'm a little lost on the KEY DATES thing. I'm new to numismatic stuff. Whats so significant of the 95 proof kennedy and...
Lol, I had to read it a few times as well. In simple terms: - Collectors of the Kennedy halves and Roosevelt dimes proofs can only be found in...
Placed my order for 5 of each. Should pay off since I'm planning to hold for a few years
I did the 2010 ATB set... might as well get some of this. 5 sets of each it is! Call me greedy but I've never had proofs so this might be a cheap...
Ordered two, sadly both are going back for a replacement. Visible scratches on GW's cheeks on both. This sucks and I'm glad to be out after this...
Just got my coin in. Cracked it open and the quality is definitely getting better, same small scratches on the brim but that's about it. I'm fine...
Got a shipped email from them on the 7th... still no ATB and tracking info shows nothing. Hum... I hope it's good!
