    Don't forgot the all important packaging will be different as well, even if ever so slightly.

    The proof set lists 1 lincoln cent but has a pic of four? Will these be the copper ones?

    The difference is if you want to fill the Dansco albums with proofs you need both the clad and silver to complete it. image

    Is there any advantage to advanced subscription vs buying the sets when they go on sale?
