<p>[QUOTE="TheMont, post: 2981546, member: 80121"]Sorry I didn't post sooner, but i took the time to listen to the State of the Union Address. You have every right to collect what you like. If you like clad proof sets, then by all means collect them. I prefer silver ones, so when they came out I started getting them, BUT not from the mint. If you wait a few years, normally you can get Proof Sets on the secondary market for less than the mint charges. There are exceptions to this, 2012 comes to mind. My point is, silver sets contain silver, a precious metal as opposed to the clad sets. I was serious, there are several coin shops, in the area, that sell past clad sets for $5. Now if you plan on keeping yours, then that doesn't matter, I just hope you have someone that will carry on your collection after you pass on. If they decide to liquidate your collection, they will be disappointed by the value of the clad sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>I just liquidated a coin collection for a family whose dad passed away. they were greatly disappointed by the money we were able to get. Unfortunately, he collected what he liked, but it was not worth very much.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
