<p>[QUOTE=&quot;alcochaser, post: 318815, member: 11241&quot;]Perhaps I am barking up the wrong tree. But I believe a lot of the coins made in 40% silver are undervalued. Nice thing is that 40% silver coins are a &quot;short set&quot;. Here are some that I think are undervalued, from highest value to lower in my opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>1973 Sliver Ike Proof.</p><p>An early 70s coin with a mintage just over a million, in a nice government holder. If you see this coin snap it up in OGP. Most especially if you see it clear with no bluish tint. This is the KING of the 40% in my opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>1974 Sliver Ike Proof.</p><p>The 1973 seems to get all of the attention, but there are scant more of these then the 1973 edition. These are a great value at current prices. Snap one up if you see one without the bluish tint</p><p><br /></p><p>1972 1973 and 1974 Silver Ike Uncirculated,</p><p>1972 Silver Ike proof</p><p>Mintages between from 1.4 to 2 million each.</p><p><br /></p><p>1970-D</p><p>This one does get the attention, but in my opinion it&#039;s still undervalued! No reason to state the obvious.</p><p><br /></p><p>1965 SMS, 1966 SMS, 1967 SMS</p><p>These are a mixed bag, some coins are near prooflike, others look like regular issues. Quality examples are undervalued at lot, often still sitting in SMS holders.</p><p><br /></p><p>1968-S,1969-S,1970-S</p><p>First proof coins from San Fransisco. Middle of the road coins. 1970-S is overshadowed by the 1970-D a lot.</p><p><br /></p><p>1776-1976 Proof set.</p><p>One of two quarters ever made in 40%, and you get a silver half and dollar in the set too. Good pickups in the OGP packaging, with the set still in the foam unassembled. The mint destroyed an unknown quantity of these too.</p><p><br /></p><p>1971 Silver Ike Proof and Uncirculated</p><p>First year mintage problems and higher mintages hold these back, buy any you find in good condition with no blueish tint on the proof</p><p><br /></p><p>1776-1976 Uncirculated Set.</p><p>Has the other 40% Quarter, Undervalued in the OGP packaging. Again the mint destroyed an unknown amount.</p><p><br /></p><p>1965</p><p>Harder to find then the other released for circulation coins.&nbsp; For the price they are worth it.</p><p><br /></p><p>1966,1967,1968-D, 1969-D</p><p>The bottom of the barrel</p><p>You can still find these in bank rolls, still a good pickup.</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps a stigma of reduced silver content holds these coins down, but as new collectors come in that dont remember circulating 90% coins, the demand for these will pick up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
