[QUOTE="rbm86, post: 8570, member: 854"]I don't know. The set looks cool, but $90 seems a bit steep. Question: Are the nickels going to be Matte finish, like the 1994 Jefferson set? They do not really specify on the web site, from what I can see. When I ordered the 1993/4 Jefferson dollar/currency set, I thought the nickel was just a nice Unc. coin, but, from reading one of Jody's posts, I realized it is quite valuable now because of the matte finish!!! I missed out on the 97 one with the Botanical Garden set. Every once in a while the Mint sells these "instant rarities" like the Matte 98 Kenndy Half and the 1996-W dime. The big one I missed out on was the 1995-W proof silver eagle -- but you had to spend a grand for the whole set with the gold coins to get the eagle.[/QUOTE]
