<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1053277, member: 18157&quot;]I haven&#039;t had much time lately to keep up with CT so I apologize in advance is this topic has already been discussed....</p><p><br /></p><p>Back in September, I recall reading a <a href="http://www.usmint.gov/pressroom/index.cfm?action=press_release&amp;ID=1160" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/pressroom/index.cfm?action=press_release&amp;ID=1160" rel="nofollow">US Mint announcement</a> about the 2011 Unc/Proof sets being issued in January (instead of July/August). </p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s great...but I was wondering what that might mean for the 2010 silver sets. Will the 2010 sets still be offered for a full year?</p><p><br /></p><p>Given rising price of silver and the static price of silver proof sets,&nbsp; I would expect that the the price for the 2011 silver sets would have to be&nbsp; greater than the 2010 silver sets. </p><p><br /></p><p>It they keep selling the 2010 silver proof sets into 2011, they would have to raise prices to match the price of the 2011 silver proof sets...the Mint wouldn&#039;t sell two sets at different prices, would they?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>So I was thinking...one of two things is likely to occur...either, </p><p><br /></p><p>1. The price for 2010 Silver Proof sets go up to match the 2011 prices, or</p><p>2. The 2010 silver sets have an early &quot;Sell Out&quot; ...and possibly the Unc and Clad Proof sets, as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Either way, <span style="color: red"><span style="color: black">it might be a good idea to </span>pick up some extra sets before the end of the year.</span> :thumb:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>2010 Sales figures as of 07Dec2010...</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Unc:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 514,498</p><p>Clad Proof:&nbsp;&nbsp; 978,016</p><p>Silver Proof: 476,999[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
