<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PennyGuy, post: 675347, member: 17502&quot;]Good questions, yes it does seem confusing.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>You are correct in your example of a 1960 proof set, the coins were silver, thus no seperate silver proof set.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;m going to recommend you look at picking up a copy of &quot;A Guide Book of United States Coins&quot; by RS Yeoman, available anywhere, or even at a local library.&nbsp; The section on proof sets will help shed light on what years have the &quot;clad&quot; proof sets, and what years &quot;silver&quot; proof sets were produced. (Silver sets were started in 1992)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Pricing guides are only guides, for example, don&#039;t pay too much attention to the pricing in the book recommended above.&nbsp; I recommend doing searches on completed eBay listings, or at auction sites like ha.com.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>However you decide to approach collecting proof sets, you will have a lot of choices to consider.&nbsp; Have fun..:smile[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
