So far this year, the spot price of silver has dropped from approximately $30 per Troy ounce to a little over $18 per Troy ounce.

Previously, the frosty finish on proof coins was the exception and not the rule. Approximately the first one hundred coins minted from a new set of proof dies had frosted devices. If you collect proof coins made before 1970, you know that the deeper the cameo contrast the Read Full PostGrading Cameo Contrast on U.S. Proof Coins originally appeared on About.com Coins on Saturday, April 27th, 2013 at 08:00:01.Permalink | Comment | Email this
