<p>[QUOTE=&quot;onecenter, post: 2110838, member: 8703&quot;]Agreed.&nbsp; I have found that NZ decimal proof sets since the mid-to-late-1990s can be very expensive, in particular.&nbsp; Since these proof sets contain the NZ$5 coin in .925 fine silver, and mintage totals of only 2000 sets are the norm in some cases, US$200-$500 per proof set is not uncommon.</p><p><br /></p><p>Uncirculated sets are also far from plentiful and with the same NZ$5 coin in copper-nickel, possibly 4000 or 5000 sets are minted.</p><p><br /></p><p>Every once in awhile I find a more current NZ uncirculated set at a low price and snap it up.</p><p><br /></p><p>Such low mintages indicate one important thing about collecting New Zealand issues, they hold their value very well and are quite a challenge to purchase in the marketplace, even when new![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
