<p>[QUOTE="JJK78, post: 902298, member: 19207"]So Krispy - what exactly do you think that the mint should sell these sets for? Certainly it is only $16 worth of melt value silver but who exactly purchases anything from the mint for it's melt value?? I definitely don't and really when you look at some of the mint's other silver offerings it really is a good deal. I mean look at the current Boy Scouts commeratives, 1 ounce of silver in a single coin and they are getting $35-$45 a pop.</p><p>Plus is paying double spot price really all that much to pay for what you are getting? Not to mention you might get a really nice set of PF70 UC's and what would that be worth? I think the chances are greater of finding a gem in a new proof set then in digging through the circulated 90% silver bin at the local coin shop.</p><p>It is a risk like any other investment but in the end I would rather have these 5 silver quarters then 10 circulated 90% silver Washingtons.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
