    I always buy the proofs.... because they are (to me) more attractive. Cheers, RickO
  • The Uncs will have a lower mintage, but the Proof coins also have low mintages when compared to proof mintages for other years.

    I picked up some of each.

    I think each to his/her own. The proof will probably get you more of a premium in the future, but in my opiniion you simply can't beat the look of the business strikes. So, whatever you like best, or whatever you think will bring you more should be the best answer.
