<p>[QUOTE="AUBU2, post: 316868, member: 11120"]The 2001 set has the key Sacagawea proof in it. That's the hardest year to get a PF70 Sacagawea. At one time the raw coin was selling for around $80. The PF70 Sacagawea was selling close to $400.00 but a few have recently sold for around $225.00. I think the recent price weakness in some coin categorys amounts to three things. (1). The mint has been unleashing a number of new products, so collectors have to spread their coin dollars thinner(Gold spouse, Presidential, Platinum 10th Anniversary, ect). (2). The recent runup in gold prices has some collectors dumping alot of their silver and switching to gold. (3). The economy is very sluggish & with a rather murky looking future(credit crisis, housing slump, unemployment, Oil prices, relations with Iran & Russia). Leaving many collectors on the sidelines. If silver prices continue to rise it will add to interest in silver proofs sets in the future.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
