Not a good time for price increases... though likely planned before the current situation. I will get the silver proof set...I like the silver coins - reminds me of when they circulated. Cheers, RickO
Agree but if most people just said no there would be some modern issues with extremely low mintages that would sell for multiples of the issue price on the secondary market. Do you like to gamble?

Some hefty increases, even when silver has gone down some. I got the last two limited edition silver sets for fun with some other sets each year. Maybe the limited edition will be the only one I get this year. They are overpriced but it's got all the silver in one place. The mint sets are disappointing to me now so I won't bother.
Yea I still like to keep my collection going. I buy the annual sets and silver eagles. I basically just cut my numbers down to just what I need, no extra sets anymore.

I skipped buying Kennedy half dollars for a couple of years and then had to buy a 2012 silver half proof in the aftermarket.. I paid $75 for it. 😵

Wonderful! Why not? We all seem to be having extra disposable income at the moment....
They are giving out money like it grows on trees, the have to recoup some of it.

Overpriced - I haven't bought anything from them in many years. I don't miss the drama at all.
I have to wonder if their customer base is growing or not.

I see where 2020 eagles have been trading over $25. Nice premium!!
