Collector coins

It should be noted the United States Mint produces Proof Sets specially for collectors and speculators. Silver Proofs tend to be the standard designs but with the dime , quater, half dollar, and in some cases the dollar having silver content. Another type of proof set is the Presidential Dollar Proof Set where four special $1 coins are minted each featuring a president.

2007 had George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison
2008 had James Monroe, John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, and Martin Van Buren
2009 had William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, James K. Polk, and Zachary Taylor
2010 has Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, and Abraham Lincoln
2011 is to have Andrew Johnson, Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, and James A. Garfield
