United States of America, 1992 VIP Silver Proof Set
In 1964 the United States stopped striking her coins in 900 fine silver and in 1970 they stopped using any silver in the coins. This is a VIP 1992 Silver Proof Set. The Kennedy 50 Cent, Washington 25 Cent, and Roosevelt 10 Cent coins are struck in 900 fine Silver. The Proof Set also includes the Jefferson 5 Cent in cupro-nickel and the Lincoln Cent in copper-plated zinc. The five coins come in a double-sided plastic display case which then comes in a silver and black wallet with an information sheet. We think this set is important because three of the coins which are usually struck in cupronickel are struck only in this VIP set in Proof 900 fine Silver.
