I’ve been following some of the sales. Most are the whole set. I’m really just interested in the dimes but I might go ahead & get the whole set. I like getting the 70s so I’ll have to spend a little bit to get them. I just have to see when the right time will be.

Two things need to happen that will affect the sales price of this set:
The first is when the set becomes a sellout.
The second is the number of the Dimes that will Grade a Reverse Proof and
a Proof 70 Ultra Cameo.

It is now safe to assume that this set will be a sellout.
Next we will need to wait for 30 days. This is the time that the most Dimes in this set that will be sent to the Graders to get an Early Release or First Releases designation. IF the number of Dimes that receive a “70” designation is Low, collectors will pay a premium to own these coins. It is helpful that the mintage on this set is already low.

If the population of 70’s are low, the dimes in this set will become one the Modern coin hits from the US Mint!

Personally I go back and forth on this, but usually proofs seem to be counted separately. Since this set includes a 2015-W proof that kind of puts it in both categories, but as a unique issue I’d have to say it should be included to make a collection “complete.” (Now you can argue that since this is with a commemorative it’s not a regular issue and shouldn’t count anyway…but at this point I think my head’s hurting.) Anyway, I’d give the same advice as we do in ham radio: “Work ’em first and worry about the confirmation later.” If you don’t have this set yet, get it. It looks like a winner, and is good looking too.

However, do the proof dimes of 1950 mintage 51,386 and 1951 mintage 57,500. Why do these two Roosevelt dimes not count as lower mintage than the March of Dime coins? I don’t understand.
