2018-S United States Silver NGC Reverse Gem Proof Set

Eight First-Ever Coins in One Fantastic First-Ever Set!

The U.S. Mint in San Francisco began producing proof coins in 1968 – and to mark its 50^th year of minting America’s “best of the best,” the mint is releasing a FIRST-EVER set of 10 stunning Reverse Proofs – including eight coins never before issued in this distinctive finish! It’s a remarkable set that is highly anticipated by collectors eager to add these first-of-kind proof coins to their collections – and based on past history, if you want to get one of these sets you will need to act fast!

How fast? Well, consider the popularity of previous U.S. Mint Anniversary Proof Sets that contained reverse proof coins:

The 2006 Three-Piece Silver Eagle Set released to celebrate the 20^th Anniversary of the Silver Eagle contained just one Silver Eagle with a reverse proof finish. The edition limit of 250,000 sold out in just a few weeks. Five years later, the Mint released its 2011 Silver Eagle Set celebrating the program’s 25^th Anniversary. Like the 2006 set, it contained just one reverse finish proof. That set had an edition limit of 100,000 – and it sold out in just a few hours!

How long will it take for the 50^th Anniversary 2018 San Francisco Mint Silver Reverse Proof Set to be completely sold out? Who knows, but based on past history the best guess is: Not Long!

Here are the coins in the 50^th Anniversary 2018 San Francisco Mint Silver Reverse Proof Set:

• First-Ever Reverse Proof 2018 Lincoln Cent.
• First-Ever Reverse Proof 2018 Jefferson Nickel.
• 90% Silver Reverse Proof Roosevelt Dime
• Five First-Ever 90% silver Reverse Proof 2018 America the Beautiful Quarters™ -- Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Georgia and Rhode Island.
• 90% Silver Reverse Proof 2018 Kennedy Half-Dollar
• First-Ever Reverse proof 2018 Native American Dollar with Jim Thorpe design.

The very best in U.S. coinage, Proof finish coins are the ultimate in quality, beauty and value – double-struck under intense pressure to bring out their intricate details and dazzling luster. To achieve a Reverse Proof effect, the dies and planchets are specially prepared so that multiple strikes result in frosty fields and shimmering details – the complete opposite of their traditional proof finish counterparts – and far more scarce! A good way to tell the difference is to imagine the difference between a photograph and its negative. When held right, a standard proof appears like a black-and-white photograph while a reverse proof takes on the appearance of its negative. The visual effect is remarkable!

Your 50^th Anniversary 2018 San Francisco Mint Silver Reverse Proof Set has also been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as being in Gem Proof condition, meaning the coins were expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes. NGC has placed its certification labels directly on the original mint packaging.

Housed in their original packaging and accompanied by the San Francisco Mint’s official certificate of authenticity, this first-ever 50^th Anniversary Reverse proof Set is a must-have for any fan of the mint’s annual releases. So don’t wait – secure one or more for your collection now!
