I have been doing a lot of research on early US Proof coinage and I am surprised at how overlooked early US Proof coinage is. As I have stated, I am mainly a 16th to 19th century German Thaler collector, so I hope you guys do not mind me asking a lot of question about US coinage. The only series of US coins I did collect before getting into German Thalers over 37yrs ago,... were Morgan Dollars in PL and DMPL only.

I agree Don, type proofs are extremely over-looked and are under-valued compared to their mintages and survival rates. You pick a good subject and would be more than happy and humbled to answer any questions you might have. You know a lot already but I can try to help.
