1992 United States Mint Proof Set 5 coins. 1992-S Proof SetIn 1992, the Mint offered four different Proof Set versions to collectors: the regular 1992-S Proof Set, the 1992-S Prestige Set, the new 1992-S Silver Proof Set (same as the regular Proof set, except the Dime, Quarter, and Half Dollar were made of 90% pure silver, instead of Clad Copper-Nickel), and the 1992-S Silver Premier Set (same as the Silver Set, but in fancier packaging). Collectors started to feel the pinch - the cost of all four Proof Set versions was $125.00! Interest in the regular 1992-S Proof Set was up slightly higher from 1991.Each set contained five coins: One example each of the Lincoln Cent, Jefferson Nickel, Roosevelt Dime (Copper-Nickel Clad), Washington Quarter (Copper-Nickel Clad), and Kennedy Half Dollar (Copper-Nickel Clad).About the sets: All coins in the 1992-S Proof Set were intended to have a Cameo or Deep Cameo Finish.Mintage: 2,675,618 setsOriginal packaging: The coins of the 1992-S Proof Set were placed in individual holes in a purple-colored, textured paper and cardboard insert, then sealed in a two-piece, clear plastic case. The case was then inserted into a protective outer cover, consisting of purple cardboard imprinted with the somewhat confusing silver words: "United States Mint Proof Set • 1992." The new collector might ask, "Is this a Mint Set or a Proof Set?"
