<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Burgess, post: 8173735, member: 105098&quot;]I&#039;ve done well with mint purchases over the years, but I am selective, and if I miss out on something, Well, I miss out, simple as that, I won&#039;t buy it for a bigger markup if it&#039;s sold out. </p><p><br /></p><p>that all said the mints pricing in the last year or so has turned me completely off from buying anything from them, and seriously, like 6 or 7 Christmas ornaments on the schedule this year? Really? I get the one or two for the novelty, but it&#039;s as if they made a shift to producing novelty items like the franklin mint or something. LOL what&#039;s next, collectorplates with and imbedded mint set? (I know, dont&#039; give them any ideas) </p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways. I bought two things from the mint last year, the silver american eagles designer set, and the 2021 mint set. both of which I thought were fair prices and because I wanted the quarters and the RP silver eagles of both designs. I passed on all other silver eagle offerings, and passed on the proof sets, I think they are over priced on most things and getting worse by what I can tell for 2022. </p><p><br /></p><p>those W nickels, yeah they killed the uncirculated one due to the current &quot;condition&quot;. this also turned me off on them. When they wake up and get back to reality I might buy some products again, but looks like this is the new business model and not changing any time soon except for maybe the worse. </p><p><br /></p><p>Still the proof and reverse proof Jefferson 2020 W nickels are amazing. </p><p>they sold 465,080 proof sets w/ proof W nickel</p><p>and 313,184 silver proof sets w/reverse proof W nickel</p><p>so, I&#039;d suppose that&#039;s the mintage figures for those nickels.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
