<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jimmyrules712, post: 607972, member: 10367&quot;]Well I think if you look at the mintages, in 99 there were 804,565 (if my source is correct) silver proof sets minted with no quarters only silver proof sets made.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now let&#039;s fast forward to 2004 where 1,175,934 silver proof sets were made plus another 593,852 quarters only silver proof sets.&nbsp; Since a lot of the people who bought these (I might even guess the majority) did it only for the quarters I think it&#039;s a fair assessment to say that in 2004 they made over twice as many silver proof sets as 1999.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only problem is this doesn&#039;t explain why the silver proof set didn&#039;t shoot up in value for 2000, 2001, and 2002 since they didn&#039;t make quarters only sets those years either and the full silver set was similar in mintage numbers to 1999.&nbsp; I think the best explanation is a lot of people bought the sets in 1999 since the program just started but then lost interest and demand wasn&#039;t as high for the later sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully the data on this site was accurate.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.bestcoin.com/us-proof-sets.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.bestcoin.com/us-proof-sets.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.bestcoin.com/us-proof-sets.htm</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
