<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lawtoad, post: 2507327, member: 31685&quot;]First, there is really no right way or wrong way to collect. If you look there are modern proof sets that have gone up in value. I personally collect for the joy of collecting. You should do what makes you feel more comfortable. If you are more drawn to the silver proofs then get them from whichever source is more to your liking.</p><p><br /></p><p>Second, if you want proofs minted in the same composition as circulating coins, then buy the regular proof set as well, if not pass on it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Third, if you want to get the entire unc set right away, then buy the sets. I know many collectors buy the unc set just for the purpose of getting that years production pieces for their sets. Some buy them for a particular coin. Half dollars are not minted for circulation, so many people buy the sets just to get the half dollars.</p><p><br /></p><p>The bottom line, at least in my mind, is to collect the way you find most enjoyable. It is a wonderful hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
