<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dannic113, post: 1683636, member: 35203&quot;]Exactly. Proofs are collector coins business strikes are for exactly that conducting business. It&#039;s the dealers in their effort to make a buck that has made MS coins a collectible. Plus it just seems worse now because collectors were used to the satin finish coins that were specially prepared and were placed from the bins to the packaging by hand. That&#039;s why now that they have gone back to just taking a minted bin of cents, nicks, dimes, quarters, etc. and shoving them into mint set packaging the quality has dropped back to dismal levels. Also not to mention the cutbacks that are happening as the fed tries to spend less and rake in more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
