<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Douglas, post: 3756, member: 617&quot;]Thanks for the tip I will get that book, buy the book first, then buy the coin. I have seen the sets you mention in the plastic holders and I took a pass on them. I would only buy sets in the original envelope, original celophane, with the cardboards and the piece of paper; preferably unopened. The unopened will be very hard to come by from what I&#039;ve seen at dealer&#039;s inventory. And I also look for envelopes that someone hasn&#039;t written on. Looking over what I need, they do get pricy. From &#039;58-&#039;52 are not too bad, but then the price climbs on a straight line up. I&#039;m also need a &#039;61, somehow I missed getting that one, probably didn&#039;t have the money at the time. My entire proof collection was purchased one at a time, one per year, by me from the mint starting in 1959, so I have a pretty good head start. I definately need to get educated on how to spot a fake.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
