Proof Sets Of U.S. Mint Coins: When Did It Start?

The history of proof sets of U.S. Mint coins started centuries ago. Each time new currencies and coins were to be mass produced and released into circulation, they had to be designed and polished to perfection. A few sets were made and examined. If there were problems and changes were needed to be done, these coin sets were kept and not reproduced. New sets would then be produced until everything was done right.

Workers kept these unique coins. Some of them were given as gifts or souvenirs to important and influential people. Then the demand started to increase. Coin collectors, investors, politicians, and other wealthy people became a fan of these unique coins. Eventually, the mint produced these coins for sale.
