<p>[QUOTE="Razz, post: 4846402, member: 100526"]Just picked up my birth year proof set from a LCS. Here is a quick tablet photo. As I walked in he was working in some unopened proof sets. I checked the bid board and picked up a couple of silver world coins at just below spot. Then I noticed the year on the box of proofs 1963. I said hey that is the year I was born. He said I got this in today, an unopened box of 25 sets! He was opening each one looking for cameos. He let me have the pick of the 25 for $18. $1.50 over melt! He also let me have the original box. Not the best pictures but the coins are awesome. 57 years in storage and just opened about an hour or two ago. [ATTACH=full]1170058[/ATTACH]</p><p>Note the shipping label.
