<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1263390, member: 18157&quot;]I know quite a few First Spouse collectors that couldn&#039;t keep up with the entire series and had to focus on one or the other. Most chose to keep the proofs since they looks so much nicer. </p><p><br /></p><p>Bottomline...the Uncs will be much more rare (population-wise), but the Proofs will likely have a larger Collector Base...and, therefore, command higher prices (<b>perhaps</b>).</p><p><br /></p><p>I started the series buying two (2) of every coin. I did that as insurance against a steep rise in gold prices. As it turns out, that wasn&#039;t a bad move. I&#039;ve been keeping my best coins and selling some of the others to keep up with the series. Hopefully, I&#039;ll have enough coins to finish both the Unc and Proof series and not be presented with the unpleasant task of choosing one over the other.</p><p><br /></p><p>Existing First Spouse coins have gone up quite a bit in price (over the price of gold) and there are still quite a few available due to people giving up on the series or selling either their Uncs or Proofs to focus on the other. My prediction (and I think it&#039;s a good one) is that this &quot;availability&quot; will dry up once the series completes...or nears completion. That&#039;s when you&#039;ll see prices begin to take off...(jmho).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
