  • Run of the mill silver proof set was my first thought.

    The last non-statehood quarter in silver proof!
    Who knows what the design will become in 2009 or 2010.
    Always looking for attractive rim toned Morgan and Peace dollars in PCGS or (older) ANA/ANACS holders!

  • I picked them up mainly because the coins are to me flawless and all DCAM. If only one were to grade PR70 (yeah right) it would be a "You Suck!" worthy purchase

    Hey Rat,
    Don't hold your breath on the PR70DCAM! Hope you didn't pay over $30 for the set... Now all you need it about 999 more sets, crack them all out and do a bulk submission, you MIGHT get your PR70DCAM that way!
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    I paid a total of $35 for the set. Even if they grade at 67-68 it will be worth it and I cant see them grading lower. Plus like anablep said this is the last year before statehood quarters ans of the proof sets I have seen this was especially nice. We'll see how it turns out when I crack and submit them. It is, after all, only money!

    Why crack them, leave them in the set and put them away!
