[QUOTE="thedabbler, post: 1266378, member: 32800"]It is, basically, that: 1) There are many people who collect entire sets (all quarters, all dimes, etc.). People have been collecting proof sets for decades now. 2) If you want a complete set, you need to get each year. 3) The price of each set (year) depends on the number available and the number of people wanting it. 4) The rarest coin in each set (called the "key") costs more than the other coins in the set. 5) At the current time, the key proof silver half dollar and dime are from 1995, with a mintage of 680k. 6) The 1995 proof silver half dollar is currently going for $40+. The 1995 proof silver dime is currently going for $10. 7) The only way to get the 2010 and 2011 proof silver half dollar and proof silver dime is to get the entire proof set. 8) At the rate we are going, there will be fewer 2010 and 2011 proof silver half dollars than 1995 proof silver half dollars. That suggests that the 2010 and 2011 proof silver half dollar and dime will be worth more than the 1995 ones.[/QUOTE]
