The program was introduced to give coin collectors the opportunity to acquire a complete set of coins issued and released by the US Mint for a given year. Unlike the standard sets, Proof Sets are exclusively for collectors and are considered to be the finest examples of U.S. coinage available. Proof coins are struck from specially selected and polished planchets (coin blanks). The dies used to strike these coins are specially prepared as well and highly polished. The planchets are hand fed into the striking press and special care is taken during the handling and packaging of the proof coins. Proof coins are struck twice to ensure an increased sharpness in detail. The coins also exhibit a mirror finish because of the polished die and planchets. 1964 US Mint Proof Coin Set includes the following GEM proof coins:* (1) 1964 Lincoln "Wheat Ear" cent* (1) 1964 Jefferson nickel* (1) 1964 Roosevelt dime (struck in 90% Silver) * (1) 1964 Washington quarter (struck in 90% Silver)* (1) 1964 Franklin half-dollar (struck in 90% Silver)Why Add these Coins to your US Coin Set Collection?Proof sets are a remarkable numismatic product because collectors can add a complete assortment of coins issued by the US Mint for circulation in a given year.
