<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1336487, member: 18157&quot;]I&#039;m not an Ike collector, but I&#039;ll give it a try...then let the more knowledgeable Ike Collectors correct me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your sets are Proof sets, not Mint sets.

The prices are low due to the large number sold. However, many of the sets have been broken up and their prices will likely rise 20-30 years from now.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1973s Proof Ike was minted (as you say) in both Copper-Nickel clad (2,760,399) and Silver clad (1,013,646) varieties. I know they released these in sets and as individual coins (&quot;Brown Ikes&quot;, I believe). Since the Red Book mintage for the 1973 Proof sets is the same as the mintage listed for the Copper-Nickel clad Ikes...my &quot;guess&quot; is that&#039;s what you have.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
