<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 444614, member: 307&quot;]Oddly, pocket, the 1999 Silver Proof Set kind of proves out my point. The set was not made available in quantity in 1999 to anyone. The Mint limited purchases to 2 sets per address with NO bulk sales. Since the dealers couldn&#039;t obtain the sets in quantity, the only source of them was to buy them from private collectors, and that meant paying over the issue price for them. The 2000 Silver sets were available in bulk, and judging by the sales of the 99s, dealers stocked up on these, buying way more than they needed. So much so that to this day dealers still have them on hand and they are available at or below issue price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
