[QUOTE="gboulton, post: 1420576, member: 27043"]The Dansco should do just fine, though you may indeed see some discoloration. Search this forum or google for "Dansco toning" to see discussion on the likelihood of this, and learn about Dansco's "SilverGuard" albums to address it. If you find a set of 5 [B]silver [/B]proof quarters for anything approaching $6.50, they're likely fakes. The silver value ALONE would put the $1.25 of 90% silver in the $25-$30 range, give or take. The mint's current price on the [URL="http://catalog.usmint.gov/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=10001&productId=16454&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=10211"]2012 Silver Proof Set[/URL] is $41.95 EDIT : Ah, it's just been pointed out to me, you said $6.50 each, making a set in the $32-$33. My error, I simply didn't read thoroughly. Yes indeed, you may find them at that price, though it'll likely take a bit of looking with current sets going at $42 from the mint.[/QUOTE]
