<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gallienus, post: 3147773, member: 42034&quot;]An idea I&#039;d really like to see the mint implement.&nbsp; Is anyone else here peeved that modern proof sets missed the beautiful Peace dollar by one year?!&nbsp; Our only silver proof sets and the biggest coin in them is just a small half dollar.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ve had occasional interest in getting an early modern proof set, like a &#039;42, but face it they&#039;re pretty much all the same as they basically started after the bulk of presidential coinage.&nbsp; Maybe that&#039;s why modern proof sets are dead in the water.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think the mint should reissue 100th anniversary proof sets, in 90% silver, using the designs of 100 years ago.&nbsp; That way we can finally see what a proof Standing Liberty quarter really looks like.&nbsp; I&#039;d really like to see a type I in one of those -- <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie99" alt=":watching:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />!&nbsp; The sets would also include the Peace dollar, the Walkers, Mercuries, Buffalos, and the Lincoln cent.&nbsp; The year would be the current one; i.e. 2018, etc and the denoms could be whatever they want. </p><p><br /></p><p>If they were really crazy they could even include the gold: same weights and fineness of the $2.5 - $20 pieces as a premium set.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
