Interesting.

 

If you're buying Mint and Proof sets with the expectation that they will rise in value based on their population, don't hold your breath.

why 2012 mint proof set is so popular over $100 per set ? Just because the lowest mintage ? but now the 2014 mint proof set is the lowest instead of 2012, will the 2014 set price going up ?
