Without it no one could have a complete set and the mintage numbers are relatively low considering all who are trying to aquire the full set atleast at this time. I don&#039;t think many are collecting for the future value- but are collecting these full sets because it is just not possible for many to aquire a full set. 303,000,000 US citizens and only 804,000 could ever even possibly have a complete set I think that is less then 1% of the US population (Im not real good at figures so could be off there). And realistically some of these sets have already been lost, spent, etc. Which Im sure everyone on this board knows about mintage numbers.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And I have seen where people in foreign countries are collecting these silver quarter sets also.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Do I think a complete series set of the quarters run will ever go into the multi thousand dollar range? Not a chance.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But it sure is nice to be part of that small percentage knowing that you do own something that is not common just like anyone else that might have a rare or unique coin. I do agree that a coin or collection is only worth what someone is willing to pay. Bottom line the actual monitary value is just what face value is. Take a 1$ coin selling for $300 or $400 and spend at a grocery store its going to get you 1$ worth of groceries.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Im comfortable that I have the whole set and will have the series displayed on my wall in an nice solid wood and glass frame.&nbsp; Makes a nice conversation piece even though total spending worth of the coins will only be about $100. and yes I did pay more which everyone did that has the complete set even if it came direct from the mint.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Freespirit[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
