Proof nickels likely in June!

Article!

They don't know for certain whether proofs or uncirculated nickels will be included in the sets. If they're the latter, they better be high grade! Proofs would work but having uncs in the coin and currency sets just doesn't sound right unless the coins are specially made or selected. Heck, just make them matte proof strikes like the earlier 1994 and 1997 coin and currency sets!

Thanks Leo! Now my head is spinning after reading about the gazillion mint products coming out this year! Oh for the simplicity that was 1985!

The Coin and Currancy Set sounds KEWL!

[Leothelion]

The score is 155 to 155! Pehaps they should put both proofs and uncs in the set to satisfy everyone!

Matte proofs of the new designs would be very cool!

 

With the '94 and '97 coins, that would make a nifty little four-coin set!

Hey Ken! Welcome aboard! Guys like you, Overby, Wells, anyone who collects these FS nickels conservatively have the greatest collections over in that registry, congratulations!

Thanks Leo,

 

Conservatively is the only way I can afford to collect them!

I can see your point if you are someone who collects mint products every year. Fortunately, I couldn't care less.

 

The last time I bought a mint product it was the 1999 Unc set that was a POS. That will be the LAST purchase I make from the Mint.

I'd like both Cameo proofs and matte proofs!!!
