<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 1342525, member: 68&quot;]The clad proofs should be a good thing to have someday.&nbsp; The attrition on these is much higher than most people figure and eventually someone will go to buy one and find the well has gone dry. But be prepared to wait a very long time.&nbsp; It could be in the near future but it&#039;s more likely to be farther out and might be quite far out.&nbsp; I&#039;d guess a minimum of five years and likely more like ten.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Nice attractive specimens will be desired by collectors so it might be a good idea to buy proof sets instead and sell the others.&nbsp; If you can get nice rolls cheap then it&#039;s as good a gamble as many things. Old clad halfs have already&nbsp; suffered more than 40% attrition and a few of the coins still in sets are corroded or otherwise unattractive.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I believe that before the proofs get attention the Uncs will get attention.&nbsp; Indeed, the Uncs going sharply higher will be the signal to start packing away the proofs I believe.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
