<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KeyHunter, post: 26356921, member: 122558&quot;]Thanks everyone for commenting on my discussion thread.</p><p>Since posting my topic-starter I &quot;subscribed&quot; to the US Mint releases for clad and silver proof sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>My silver arrived a week or so ago...gorgeous. Easy-peezy with the Mint subscription sent and auto charged. It costs what it costs.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have some older 70-80&#039;s proof sets Dad (RIP 2008) and I collected at the time (along with kid accumulated circulated sets). Some of these proof sets I&#039;ve broken open to assign the denomination into it&#039;s appropriate album in Lighthouse Quantrum snap-tites. Dad loved the collecting display sets but I love my denomination series...so he (in the afterlife) and I reach a compromise and I&#039;m sure he&#039;d be pleased.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since retirement I now collect only keys/semi keys and proof release dates of each denomination starting with (most) modern and systematically working backward through past classic designs. </p><p><br /></p><p>Dad was entranced with collecting proof condition official collector coins on his meager Steelworker salary. He also briefly purchased Krug gold WAY back...something ALSO not lost in my memory since I&#039;ve also become quite the casual gold collector...also on a meager pension and a few $ inheritance from Dad.</p><p><br /></p><p>In THIS aspect I suspect he would also be pleased.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
