<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 4900839, member: 66&quot;]Yes, over the past ten year the average silver eagle collector had had to spend about $300 for all the proofs, and another $60 to $70 for all the business strikes.&nbsp; So they had Maybe $370 total in the set.&nbsp; Then BOOM here to commemorate the 1oth anniversary they now had to spend $1000 just to get the 95 W.&nbsp; Sure they could sell off the gold coins, but they would still have nearly as much in that one coin as in the rest of the set put together.&nbsp; A lot of silver eagle collectors quit in 1995.&nbsp; (Which may be one reason why the mintage of the 1996 is the lowest of all the business strike.)&nbsp; But eventually I think most of them did come back, but I suspect many of them don&#039;t consider the 95 W to be a needed part of the set.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
