<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CoinOKC, post: 41417, member: 2146&quot;]My clad 2005 11-piece Proof Set arrived today and it&#039;s beautiful.&nbsp; I&#039;ve looked the coins over very, very carefully and every one of them is extremely well made.&nbsp; I think the quality and care is beginning to show.&nbsp; I&#039;m sorry a few other forum members have expressed displeasure about their sets, but I would promptly return them until the Mint got it right.&nbsp; I have nothing bad to say about my sets.&nbsp; The coins are completely blemish-free, very well struck, clean of any fingerprints, lint or other minute obstructions.&nbsp; They&#039;re very bright, crisp and a pleasure to look at.&nbsp; This is one set that is defintely staying in my personal collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>And, I must say that the 2005 nickels look superb in Proof condition.&nbsp; The obverse really flashes at you with all that open field and the reverse of the bison is as clean and magnificent as I could imagine.&nbsp; The coin that I&#039;m really impressed with (even more than the Bison - and I&#039;ve been drooling for the Bison for 6 months) is the &quot;Ocean View&quot; proof referse.&nbsp; Wow!&nbsp; The edge lettering is clean, the design is fresh and in proof, it really makes it pop!&nbsp; I think this is going to one my favorite modern coins, beaten out every so slightly by the Bison Nickel.&nbsp; Thank you, U.S. Mint - good job![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
