Message:: [QUOTE="berneck1, post: 904498, member: 24201"]I think the 2001 set probably has significance not only because of the New York quarter and the large population, but also because of September 11th that same year.  I remember many people I knew and worked with were holding on to their New York quarters after that.  I'm sure that spurred demand as well... I already have a 2009 mint set, but I think I may purchase another set or two.  I may also pick up a couple more silver 2009 sets. The proof cents are beautiful!  I am buying a 2010 proof buffalo next week for my bother who graduated law school this year.  I was waiting to order them all at once to save on shipping.  Which is a little risky because the mint can always yank them before that end date... One thing that has me absolutely astonished is how apparent it is that these 2009 Lincoln cents are being hoarded.  I have been purposely spending cash every chance I get, just to get back change.  I have not come across a single centennial cent yet.  In fact nobody I know has seen one "in the wild" hahaha I see them all over eBay, but just can't bring myself to pay a premium.[/QUOTE]
