Nice. Once you get past the mid-50's they are a challenge.
That's impressive.
It appears your original post could be interpreted as an offer to sell your proof sets. FWIW, I did not take it that way.
Stick them in some 2x2's flips and they'll be no worse for the wear.

It's not signed, it's a reverse proof, but YES, OF COURSE IT'S A GIMMICK TO BOOST SALES. And, if last year is any indicator, it will work. Mint...
Agreed. Looked at my spreadsheet (I'm an engineer, I can't help it). Silver proof set issue prices: $21.00 in 1992-98 $32.00 in 1999 when state...
