Hi... I was wondering this:
In the 60's, when the mint was making proof sets it seems that its hit or miss with the quality of the coins. Does the mint start minting coins in January? Do they usually start on a certain month every year??
I noticed now, that the mint sells proof sets sometimes in March or April.. but is that because of the state quarters?

for this sort of thing isn't good.
Does all that happen within 2 - 3 weeks ?? Knowing how the govt. works - I rather doubt it.
Add that to producing the packaging and assembly and you can see that the Mint begins production early on for proof coins that ultimately become sets. The drop schedule is what determines when the individual pieces are produced and assembled.
Long story short, January is the answer.
