<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 24651496, member: 101855&quot;]If I were you, I would save the money and buy Proof sets of these coins in the mint packages. The biggest problem might be finding sellers. When I was a dealer, these sets were very unpopular. It was hard to get much more than face value for them. </p><p><br /></p><p>Another problem might be finding the later issues in slabs. The grading services seem to have really cut down on the bulk slabbing bargains. I can’t find any of the more recent type coins, like the Washington Crossing the Delaware quarter, for low prices (under $20) like I could in the past. </p><p><br /></p><p>I am not a big fan of the presidential dollar series. Some of the artwork is bizarre, like the Lincoln coin, which reminds me of the pulp fiction book, “Abe Lincoln, Vampire Slayer.” </p><p><br /></p><p>Years ago the mint issued a series of presidential medals that were based in the Indian peace medals. The mint advertised them as a “youth series.” Although the mint didn’t always keep the quality of the strikes up to snuff, I have found them to be more interesting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
