Some of the prestige proof sets were poorly produced by the mint. I bought the Mount Rushmore set and the silver coin in haze oxidation around the rim. The plastic eventually came off you able to remove the clear plastic out. The mint did not seal well that the air went inside damaged the silver. I returned it to the seller and fortunately able to have a refund on ebay. Purchase another two coins proof set in better case with Air Tite with no tarnish. Beautiful coins!

Daniel in retrospect could you offer any explanation as to WHY those specific proof sets have increased in value? Is there a specific coin within them driving the cost up? Thanks.

[@CoinHELPu]

Mintages

[@saltshakere.coastdivision6963]

Supply and demand rules all markets. You must have both though.

[@chrissahar2014]

And the reason for the 1996 set is because of the Commemorative coins in them were very low mintage. As for those sets that keep their price from original Mint price, it seems the ones with Presidential dollars and mintages at or below 700K.

What are the best coins in a proof set to send off to be graded and then off to an auction?

No one can answer that, you need to lookup the potential value of each coin at PCGS or NGC price guide. I have several videos on this subject, so search my channel.

They still exist, yes. Standard proof sets are mostly still available and not too expensive going back as far as 1956; before that is when they get quite expensive, as they were minted in much lower numbers. I personally as of now have every standard proof set from 1960 until 2023.

[@revello103]

How much value enhancement (premium) for unsealed proof sets that came in flat packs, such as 1955 proof set? I have 5 of those unsealed, and a bunch of 1961 unsealed sets. The envelopes are immaculate. Look like they were issued yesterday.

The US Mint, unless you somehow have an in for the ultra rare issues or a bot or you’re really darn lucky, is not the place to invest. It’s good to get coins there but even the coins that go up in value usually can’t keep up with inflation. $57 in 1995 would buy a lot more than $60 today.

Adjusting for inflation is for fun and not reality.

@@jeffw1267 if I buy a coin for $10 and sell it for $30 then I am putting $20 in my pocket. It's that simple. Adjusting for inflation doesn't change the $20 I put in my pocket. I still have $20 over my initial investment.

Daniel, maybe you can make a video about it. Seems no one I asked really knows the answer. What is a better thing to do to maximize the profit? Sell the quarters with a W/Wv75 as soon as you find them, or hold on to them because they may become more expensive? Also do you, or does anybody know, whether the quarters released in 2021, such as the Tuskegee airmen, will have some “Ws”?

[@CoinHELPu]

As soon as you find them.

[@Coingeek1]

[@ROGUESILVER]

Adjusted for inflation you lost on just about all of them. Lol but nominally your def. Correct. Have a good day Daniel!

[@CoinHELPu]

Adjusting for inflation is just for fun and not reality. If I bought a $10 coin in 1970 and I sell it now for $30 then I made a good investment. It doesn't matter how much $30 was back in the day.

[@ROGUESILVER]

@@CoinHELPu so if 10 dollars bought you a tank of gas in 1970 and today that same coin you sold for 30 buys you the same tank of gas did you really gain anything accept a nominal increase? So unless you made enough to buy more than back then you didn't actually make anything. Just because something increases nominally doesn't make it more valuable.

[@CoinHELPu]

@@ROGUESILVER if I buy a coin for $10 in 1990 and sell it for $30 in 2020 I gained on my investment. Its how it works, this isn't about what the dollar use to buy or adjusted for inflation, that's comparing two different financial eras that can't be combined. Anytime you buy something and sell for more later you got a return for your investment.

[@ROGUESILVER]

@@CoinHELPu yes that coin went up and you made a good purchase that increased in nominal value. But $10 in 1990=$30 in 2020(as an example because I'm sure its more) so it increased in nominal value but not actual value because $10 in 1990 has the same purchasing power as $30 in 2020. So unless you made more than the rate of inflation you only made a profit nominally...not actually because of inflation. According to your video only a handful of proof sets even went up in value and adjusted for inflation you actually lost on just about all modern proof sets. Im not arguing it went up in nominal value. Im saying they didn't go up in actual value because 10=30....there is a big difference between a nominal increase and an actual or real increase in value. Its the same as buying a bond with a 1% rate and the stated inflation rate is 2%. Yes it went up in nominal value but its a negative real rate of 1%.

[@CoinHELPu]

@@ROGUESILVER all of that doesn't matter. If I buy a coin then later I sell it for a profit then I made a return on my investment, it's that simple. Your paper math and figurative thinking doesn't take away the profit I made on that coin, because the profit I made is real time while your math is paper and not what really happened.
