- Silver and clad roof set values and what dealers will pay you for them. Are proof sets god investments? Are they worth buying? I answer some of these questions in this video. Plus show you the boxes and envelopes they came and how to tell if they're silver sets or clad sets.

New silver proof set fanatic here! Thanks so much for the very nice breakdown on all proof sets. Much appreciated!
Numerous local coin dealers have told me they won't even buy them.
I asked my dealer about selling a 2000 proof set, which has coins of value totaling $2.91, and he said it was only worth $3. :P
There's just not much margin on them to be made anymore; most don't seem interested unless they predate about 1955.
I was told the same. They're not interested in this business. They only have the commemorative coins when they get 'em dirt cheap.
Proof Sets are nice... Surprised more do not collect them honestly
Well...sweetpea...you NAILED it. I would advise...although i am far from an expert...just buy a PCGS dime in a screw...or THE GORDON'S FISHERMAN NICKEL. JUST SMILE. YOU KNOW WHAT? WATCH THESE SETS TAKE HIGH AUCTION RESULTS. NEVER DOUBT !!!!🐆🐆🐈🐈🐃❤
Excellent information. Consider this: If the high rate of breaking out coins from proof and mint sets continues, a complete proof set or mint set in OGP may well become a rarity. Plus if more completist type collectors come into the market place, demand for modern proof coins most likely would increase. Investing in Proof sets is a long long hold. If you can snare the silver sets cheap and have the room, probably a safe bet, otherwise an investment in the stock market, or a MS classic oldie would have performed much better. Proof set coins and mint set coins are such a thing of timeless beauty, and perfection, that they can really demand our appreciation.
Hi Daniel, I used to collect both silver and clad proof sets. But when I took my clad proof sets to my local coin shop they were not interested, so I sold them on craigslist and recouped some of my money back. now I only collect the silver, that way they have at least the value of silver. I believe that the mint produces a much higher quality of coins in the silver sets compared to the clad. Someday I would love to see you do a video on native American coins. I have been collecting them since 2000.
Thanks Daniel
I have purchased a few but I certainly wasn't aware of all the different packaging. Thanks so very much for this content.
I bought 20 silver proof sets (red boxes) from the mint. I was shocked they started selling for less a couple of years later. When silver prices started going up, they went back up too. I sold all sets just to break even.
Moral of the story is, if you just want fantastic coins to look at, this is great. Don't buy them to turn a profit.
hi sir i want to sell my Prof sets it is red box 1974

@@riyadsheik4956 Wow, the red box 74 is highly sought after, Big money.
@riyadsheik4956 do you have any sets left
As I watch these older videos one thing comes to mind I'm always going to be a student. Dan, I'm always learning something from you. Thank you 😊👍

Oh yeah! Interesting 1936 & on boxes definitely didn’t have any idea at all! Very Good Daniel! Thanks 🎈👍👍🎈👍👍
Every one of your videos helps me to be more educated in my hobby. Thank you.
You're welcome
Thank you Sir , and LOVED THE TRUCK WINDOW SIGN 👍👍👍
most of them sets take up more room than there worth
Great video ! I'm not much into mint sets. I bought some clad 2020 quarter sets because it's been the Longest of my 61 years ! Have a good day !
Thanks again Daniel for all your hard work
I love the proof sets, i have almost all of them from 56 or so on, missing a few of the newer ones
Thanks for letting us know about the different packaging to silver content. I have started collecting proof and silver proof sets going back to the late 50s. I plan on these being kept for the long haul and passed down to my grandson, so the market price fluctuation is not a concern, except it makes it easier for me to complete my collections.
Looking at you...i can tell how passionate you are about coins.THANK YOU. GOD BLESS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow, this is a great video! You are a walking encyclopedia on coins/numismatics (I had to look that word up)🙃and after I write this note I’m going to listen to this video again because you can talk faster than I can think, (that’s a good thing) your a blessing to so many!!
Wow, thanks!
This man knows money.. Excellent truthful video.💯👍👍
This one killed by decades of Marketing Glitter hype of having any proof sets; just checked off my acquiring list, TYVM Daniel.
Thank you very much. Learning a great deal from you and I really appreciate it.
Thank you. Taught me something else. Still learning.
That was a mouthful 😂 Great Job! Great information 👍
Nice info again Daniel,thnx Rick
Great information about the different proof sets. Quick and comprehensive. I like the early proof sets for the possible errors and cameos, which are rare, but can be found.
Show me the difference
@@joeyredding1396 the difference in regards to what?
And some of the lower minted ones. They’re becoming rarer by the year.
Thanks for sharing the information.
You just made my head explode.!!!!
Too fast or too crammed?

Thanks for the info 👍
Thank you for the information it helps a lot
Oh, boy ima have to watch this video like ten times to get this...lol
Sir Daniel is good presentation ,thanks
BOYFRIEND...you are. so correct! I have PERSONALLY been to coins dealers locally and they explained to me they have so many of some of these sets its hard to practically give them away.So sad...however let's keep our enthusiasm up and hopefully THE market will come around 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Awesome video!!
My wife's grandfather had tons of these. After he passed away we helped her mom go through all of his stuff, and he had boxes and boxes of proof sets, silver proof sets, and stuff from Franklin mint. He collected everything, coins, baseball cards, anything he thought would be of more value some day. If I could go back in time I'd tell him to forget the proof sets and stack some Eagles, or Morgans, or bullion bars instead, lol.
Btw, great video and I love your channel. As a silver stacker/noob coin enthusiast I think you have one of the best channels on CZcams, just facts and first hand knowledge, no clickbait BS :)
Thank you
Thank you
I only collect individual coins 1964 and earlier. I get standard proof and uncirculated sets from coin shows out of dealers bargain bins. This is an inexpensive way to collect modern coins while saving my money for older individual coins.
Started with collecting proof sets 1962. Paper Route Coin Collectors 😎 Looking Forward To Seeing COOL 😎Coins! Fort Lauderdale 🌴BEACH FUN Show of Numismatic Coins! 😉THANKS Again!
thx for the info...
Good Video, At One Point I had over 3000 proof and mint sets , when silver went up i sold them for melt value it was a shame, i made alot of money but it was kinda sad,they lost their Intrinsic Value , Now i have no sets I really miss the old mint sets The are still a good value you can buy a 64 proof set cheaper than a new set go figure ...
Great information
$4 for the 1982 proof set that the shame almost forty years old
Thanks!
That is what started me proof sets. Now I bought last year and this year but I do not think I will buy any other sets.
Very informative video. I bookmarked it. I personally have only bought one proof set, the 2019 silver, because it was the first year they did the half, quarter, and dime in .999 silver. To be honest, I personally don't care about any coin minted after 1964, unless it is at least 90% silver. I may even crack open that proof set and send the silver coins in to be graded. Again, thanks for the video. It will help me to stay away from any proof sets that don't contain at least 90% silver coins.
Am glad am both a stacker and a numismatic and know the difference. I used to mix the two now I enjoy collecting more than stacking. I collect what I like first and foremost resell value doesn’t even enter as this is the side I don’t sell. My selling silver is bullion, coins are collectible to me even in clad and yes am a big proof sets fan got a few.
Man I love proofs!!! ;)
I have been buying these sets a few at a time and I think in a time of needing to sell to private parties, they will come in handy and draw interest
I love to collect the silver proof sets mainly 1964 and prior and also the silver mint sets the p&d. Also the double mint sets just look great coins occasionally a few full Bell line coins as well thanks again Daniel you're the man!!!!
This reminds me of the boom in 90’s comics. Everyone noticed they could be collectibles and therefore massed produced them. Making them very common. I could still buy X-men comics from the 90’s for $5. But proof sets to me are something to admire and look at. They are beautiful and just to know they haven’t been in anyones pocket and they are the best condition coin you can get.
So personally I collect all of the sets mint, proof both clad and silver and I do not collect anything to put in a book from 1956 on. The others I just see as etsy at the US Mint materials. Most of the bullion are nice to have. Watching this makes me want to drive to Ohio and pick any that would fill gaps in my collection.
Good video. I have bought sets mainly for birthdays but for a variety or error I believe that there is no way a dealer us going to allow a good variety or a rare error leave his store.
I have a 1977s proof set wondering about what it might be worth. Thank You trust you more than most.
They are good for birth year sets. They are beautiful coins but only if you like to look at them .
If you can get them for a good price, proof sets make great birthday gifts.
I have one of the 2019S silver proof sets w/ reverse proof Lincoln cent.
My sister has a big set of 1977 proof sets with no denomination. They have stamps and stories with them. About the size of a silver dollar. One is a 20th anniversary of space.
When they started producing proof sets for collectors the value in them went down because they became common like the uncirculated, there was no special rarity in them anymore. Proofs are as readily available as BU now, that is my opinion anyways. Like you said, only early ones and specialty/limited ones are worth a premium now.
Hello Daniel, I collect Proof and some Clad Coins. But They mostly go in my Dansco and Whitman Coin Albums. But I will collect some Silver Proofs for my over all collection. Take care.
Happy Easter Daniel
Happy Easter!
Hard to swallow but it does make sense. "Silver Proof" sets are not for investing. I started buying the annual sets from the U.S. Mint, both the Silver Proof sets and the American Eagle Silver Proof back in 2000. Not as a "collector" really, but as an investment. Just seemed logical, such beautiful coins would have to be worth more years from now, right? Nope. Unless the price of silver soars dramatically. Better off buying low-premium bullion and actually saving money.
Wish I would have watched this sooner was at an auction with a lot of proof sets could have made a few grand thanks for the info
Hey you...its Donald duck! Just kiddin. Yes...you can ace at an auction ❤

This was great, I've been looking for "what coins should you collect?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Wonenry Sonucas Approach - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my partner got amazing success with it.
@@tonylars4128 may you just tell me please. ?
I love proof sets and I’m looking for best prices for specific years
We have collected many proof sets over they years and we LOVE to crack them open (duplicates). Those gold presidential dollars look great in an album.
I agree, the proof Presidential Dollars look great.
Totally agree I know a lot of people would say it's a cardinal sin to crack open proof sets but I can't help myself as well love to display them
@@stopasking9745 Generally I prefer to leave them in their original packaging, but anything predating 1968 I'll put in plastic Capitol holders because it protects them better, and to be honest they look a lot better that way.
ty
Proof sets sometimes had excellent plastic golf ball markets.
I think some of the modern silver proof sets (2000-2006) are worth picking up if you can get them cheap. I'm buying them for 17x the face value of the silver coins in them.
I like collecting proof sets. No matter what coin you have, you will always get less than what you paid for them when you sell them. It's a hobby only. I remember buying gold coins at a coin shop. Then my dad needed tires on his car. So I had to sell my gold to help him get the tires. I got about half of what I paid because I didn't realize that they were cleaned with steel wool. He really ripped me off. Sold junk for a premium then gives you nothing when you sell to him. So again, it's just a hobby and hobby only. So don't spend more than what you can afford to lose.
It's a longer term hobby. I've watched coins grow in value since I was in grade school. I grew up flea marketing and garage sales, dumpster diving. I've basically been a collectibles dealer all my life, but coins have stood the test, especially gold and silver coins. When I first started ebay you could buy $20 gold coin for around $700, now you can't touch one for much less than $2,300. So you do this long term.
I bought the 1973 proof set as that was the year my Wife and were married.
I have 1 as well,, The 73, has IKE dollar, only 2M made for P,D and only found in Mint Sets none were made for circulation.
I had to literally beg my local coin shop to buy my Grandfathers old proof sets. All 1970s+ Basically double face.
Good video Daniel, proof sets not being collectable (that valuable) was one of the first things I learned when I started. Grading is another story.. my 67,68 come back as 66,65. Lol I need someone with a big name to submit them..
Yeah, hard to get the grade.
Grading needs to be correlated with the year, knowing the bad strikes for that year not just grading them all off the same standard. Just my opinion
@@CoinHELPu so now you have to sign in to haratage to view the the high resolution photos of the auction . But they are not high resolution.. they are worse. Someone is listening to the complaints and observations..
Actually strike has little to do with grading. Weak struck coins are graded high as well.
Thanks for sharing your advice Colorado Silverback777 Stay Healthy keep Stacking.
This might might be a fun video to make an update for the craziness of 2020. Those quarter packs individually wrapped are impossible to get.
Just more bad news. I just can't win. 😢
Your a winner.
Like?! Why would I "like" this video?! NO...I'm just kidding! But you did bust my collecting bubble. I have oh, idk, 50-60 (or more) Mint Sets both clad and silver. I have a couple that may be valuable but the majority are now just taking up space. Maybe I should bust them up and sell individual coins. idk......
I like them. Low mintage alone is worth having them. I have all proof sets from 54 to 2021. Broke open put into 2x2s and in notebook binders. They are the most detailed of coins. You collect uncerculated and business coins due to low mintages. Proofs are lower and quality of coin is better for the price. I dont understand the hype of not collecting them myself. Maybe because they keep getting a negative review. I will collect them.
I've got a coin guy who is sitting on crates of silver and clad proof sets. He's even sold me a couple years at spot price plus a percentage. He got a whole bunch graded and lost his ass on them. Though he did have a couple come back pf 70 ultra and dcam. The only way he'll ever get his money back is when silver hits $50 an ounce.
Yep, like the 1996 W Roosevelt dime that everybody was lusting after! The rest of the 96 set ain't worth much! There was a TON of hype about the statehood proof sets, and thet were REALLY expensive on the secondary market. RedBook shot them WAY low for the past couple of years!! Even LESS than the Mint originally sold them for! Don't even get me started on the first (2000, 2001) Sac dollars! You can see people thinking they are worth $100's when in fact, most of them are only worth face! Good info!
Thank you!
Ya it’s a shame proofs aren’t as popular as they once were. Proof coinage are truly the closest representation of the artists’ work. I feel with the increase in mintage numbers, decrease in the hobby in general, and lack of precious metal content involved all played a part in the devaluation of modern proof sets. I’m currently putting together a 20th century proof type set PCGS. It amazes me how expensive some of the earlier ones are. For instance the Morgan proofs from 1900-1904 range in the lower grades 2-4K. However it makes sense because of things such as their mintage of anywhere from 550-650 coins barely. Anyway, just my two cents!
Seven reasons to collect proof sets.
Happy Easter Daniel!!!
Happy Easter! I forgot again but I will do a shout out to you my friend.
No worries I forgot to give you something for a GAW on your Channels...

@@Car1Sagan I have another but it was personal and for my website. I never did much with it.
I'm so glad I watched this video before I bought anymore proof sets. Then again, it might be a good way to get the family's kids to start coin hunting
If you're trying to get someone started in coin collecting, the good news is most proof sets since 1968 are quite inexpensive (1964 and earlier get a little more expensive, and anything before 1955 is very expensive). It's an interesting way to get started.
Personal I loveeeee proofs and I collect them but that’s just my opinion
I found a 1939 proof set in a blue box I'm new to coin collecting but it looks legit I just can't find another original packaged one to compare it 2
For collecting silver value this is a great way to get it near melt value with future intrinsic. Enjoy the silver proof and mints - thanks for sharing...

Is 1776-1976 Bicentennial 6 coins proof set minted in San Francisco (S) marked are 40% silver clad? Another CZcams coin commenter told minted in 1976s Bicentennial coins are 40% silver. I have three sets bought cheap on eBay. Pretty shinny still without tarnish/haze/oxidation. I sealed the sets immediately with Hefty zip bags with dehumidifier silicone gel pack to absorb air and moisture.
I try to only buy the sealed ones
I have 3 sets of each from the year of 2008 or 2009. I don't open them either. plus others that i got ebay, hsn, etc...
Good job. Please be careful if you are new to buying. THANK YOU FOR SHARING ❤
People who accumulate things as an investment need to pay close attention to supply and demand. Some things that are very rare can become almost worthless when demand for it evaporates. The supply can be very small, but sometimes the demand is even smaller.
Investors and hoarders have always tampered with collector markets by artificially creating shortages and over supplies. When I was 12 years old, a 1950-D Jefferson nickle sold for around $20, which really means $172 in 2019 dollars. This was the rarest Jefferson nickle with only 2.6 million being minted, so people were hoarding uncirculated rolls.
Today 58 years later you can buy an uncirculated one for just around $10. What happened? Well, it seems there aren't 2.6 million people who collect Jefferson nickles. At least not enough willing to pay a huge premium for the rarest one. So the price plummeted as the hoarders flooded the market with perfect uncirculated coins, as they tried to get out before they became worthless.
This isn't a problem for coin collectors only. All collectibles have dropped in value as the hobby becomes less popular with young people. When I was young, every kid collected coins and stamps. Today, kids play video games and you only see old men at stamp and coin shows. Your grandmothers collection of Hummel figurines is worth a lot less today than it was 30 years ago.
I've got 3 silver proof set from every year since 1983 or 6 (gotta look lol)
If you're just collecting them because you like having them, what difference does it make what they'll be worth in the future? I'm a coin collector, not an investor; what they'll be worth in the future will be my heirs' problem, not mine.
Do you have your own collection? I listened to coinweek podcast episode and that dealer has a personal collection. I am really curious as to dealers and if they collect and how they seperate their collection from their business. Thanks for the video. I try to collect modern silver proof set and I am not really looking to make money off of them because I like them. This years is .999 as I am sure you know.
Yes, I know the new sets are .999. My inventory is my collection. I also collect images of the better coins we buy. I have a huge data base of coins, raw and graded.
