    I always liked looking at these as a kid - so shiny. I think by the 1950s, and certainly the 60's, the mint was making so many of these for collectors that the market was flooded with them. Does anyone know? Am I incorrect?

      POTRERO: Proof sets always command a premium price.
      Check out ebay and see what they are selling for.
      Most coin books will give you good info on your proof set.

      Does this set include the mint Superintendent,s sheet with it?
