Silver Proof Sets - suggested change

[iontyre]

I have been thinking, the annual Silver Proof set is very nice, being able to once again acquire quarters, dimes, and halves in 90% silver. However the inclusion of the nickel and cent in standard circulating composition is rather redundant. Why don't they include a bronze cent (pre-83 composition) and a silver nickel (WWII composition) to increase the variety and interest in the set? They could even put the large mint mark over the dome on the nickel!

Yes, I did... now if only there was some way to alter those darn dollar coins.

Hey, they're starting to put ASEs in those sets now... I'm not complaining.
