Missed out on getting one and feel like venting

OK, I will admit off the top that this is purely sour grapes but what else is my journal for if not to write my thoughts on my hobby.I do not like the constant bombardment of special LIMITED sets....it creates false rarities in my opinion. In 1995 the mint made a Proof American Eagle Silver coin with a "W" mint mark as part of a 10th anniversary set...recently a PF70 sold for $32,000 at auction!!!!...an 11 year old coin selling for more than most mid-grade 100+ year old coins...and why? An intentionally small limit on production...if these anniversary sets were truly for the collectors like I hear, then they would be available to us from the mint, not at second hand mark-ups from dealers who are allowed to buy multiple amounts of limited sets to start. Why not start at 1 set per order and later offer multiple sets if there are some left? Anyhow, I guess that the frustration is due to the fact that I can't keep up with them all....Anniversary Gold and Silver Eagles..MS and Proof Silver Eagles..MS and Proof Platinum Eagles of various denominations..MS&PF Gold of all denoms....20 state quarters{P,D,S-clad, S-silver..oh and Satin finish} ...lincoln cent MS&PF, new Jefferson nickel design MS&PF, Kennedy Halves MS,PF,SATIN,...Sacagawea...MS,PF,&satin...Franklin Commems X6...San Fran mint Silver dollar and gold $5 commems..Legacy Sets...Minnesota quarter die varieties...Golden Buffalos...my head is spinning, somebody please hand me a few aspirins, some rolls of Lincoln cents, and an old Wheat penny fold-up album please...thank you........................pictured is a true scarcity..a 1917 McKinley gold $1..mintage of only 5,000{probably less} and then finest known of this 90 year old classic, an MS67, has a Numismedia list of $10,000... or you can pay $32,000 for a 1995 Silver Bullion Coin...
