That's a subjective opinion of course but they really haven't kept up with inflation vis-a-vis their original cost. IMO again. Some of the newer silver proof sets are difficult to understand. Why is the 1999 so much higher ( and seemingly trending downward) than the 2000? Are the mintages really that significantly different?  And the '01 vs. '02, does that make sense? Almost identical mintages and wildly different prices.----- For $20 or less you can get the 60's, a tad more and you can get the late 50's. A skosh more gets you middle fifties, and then things get interesting if you crawl back to the early 50's. But hey, that's the fun isn't it? Find something you love and do it. They are gorgeous coins, and not not just some fancy over-packaging.[/QUOTE]
