[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 7294891, member: 22377"]You are pretty much correct. A few of the more recent sets had temporary price increases (due to sell-outs or lower mintages) but eventually fell back below issue price as a newer year ends up with a lower mintage. There are a few more recent years that carry a premium. ~From the mint set guide website (a great resource), the 2012 is one set that is still popular. Checking recent eBay sales, it goes above issue price. [URL]https://mintsetguide.com/2012-mint-set/[/URL] ~There was a special silver bicentennial set in 1976 (with three 40% silver coins) and that one is also over the original $9 price. [URL]https://mintsetguide.com/1976-silver-3-piece-mint-set/[/URL] ~And the 1996 continues to carry a slight premium thanks to the special "W" dime included. [URL]https://mintsetguide.com/1996-mint-set/[/URL] ~Otherwise you have to go to 1970 and earlier to find sets that consistently go above issue price (that being the last year of silver with 40% Kennedy Halfs).[/QUOTE]
