<p>[QUOTE="catbox_9, post: 198058, member: 7344"]Are the special composition cents going to be in mint sets with zinc cents? I thought the copper ones would be in proof sets only (or maybe silver proof sets only). They keep promoting the special composition cents (well kind of at least) but really who cares? To me 90% silver (currently 10X face value+) is a lot more exciting than almost 100% copper (not even 2X face value). They'll probably bring the price up for those cents but really they're worth almost nothing. It wouldn't surprise me if there was a regular proof set, a copper proof set, a silver proof set, and a silver and copper proof set where the copper sets were like $2-5 more than their non-copper counterparts.</p><p><br /></p><p>EDIT: While I'm at it, I would be in favor of the extra quarters in 2009. I've barely even heard of one of those territories so I think it deserves a quarter. The mint says they're educational but I think that's a lie. Everyone knows what Conncecticut is but they don't know what that one territory is (I can't even remember its name).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
