2000-S Clad Quarters Proof Set Quarter dollar PR 5 Coins Values
Details
Original Packaging: Two similar holders were required to house the ten coins in 2000’s Proof set, and they differed only in their inserts and the selection of coins included. Each holder consisted of a two-piece, transparent plastic casing with frosted borders. This held a blue fiberboard insert featuring a background graphic of the American flag and holed appropriately for the coins it contained. One holder housed the cent, nickel, dime, half dollar, and dollar, while the other contained the five statehood quarters for 2000. The two holders were stacked and slipped into a white cardboard box. This box was printed primarily in blue and featured a head shot of the famous Statue of Liberty, along with starred upper and lower borders, the U.S. Mint’s 50 State Quarters® logo, and the words UNITED STATES MINT PROOF SET 2000.
The five-piece sets consisted solely of the statehood quarters in copper-nickel clad composition. The holder for this set was simply one of the two holders comprising the complete set described above. An eagle appears on the box cover in place of the Statue of Liberty.
Commentary: The popularity of the 50 State Quarters® Program was reaffirmed in 2000 with impressive sales of the regular Proof set. This year’s complete set included the new Sacagawea dollar, which served to further interest and sales.
