Rare 1966 Proof Set Surfaces – A Piece of American History from Bella Hawk LLC

Ridgefield, WA – October 26, 2023 – Coin collectors, get ready! Bella Hawk LLC, a rising name in rare and collectible coins based out of Ridgefield, Washington, just announced they’ve acquired a beautifully preserved 1966 Proof Set. This isn't just a set of coins; it’s a little slice of American history, and Bella Hawk is excited to bring it to the attention of serious collectors. Let's talk about Bella Hawk LLC first. We're a small, family-run business, but we're serious about coins. We started because of a lifelong passion for numismatics – that's the fancy word for coin collecting! We hunt down cool and rare coins, making sure they’re authentic and in the best possible shape. We’re based right here in the US, at 544 S ROYLE RD, APT 167, Ridgefield, WA, 98642-7794, and you can always reach us at 610-212-2299 if you have any questions. We believe everyone should have the chance to own a piece of history, and that's what drives us. We're not some huge corporation; we're coin people, and we treat every coin, and every customer, with the respect they deserve. Now, back to the really good stuff: the 1966 Proof Set. Proof sets are special. They aren't the coins you find in your pocket change. These are made with extra care at the US Mint, using polished planchets (that’s the blank metal discs) and struck multiple times by the dies. This makes them super shiny, with incredibly sharp details. They’re made for collectors, and 1966 was a particularly interesting year. Why is the 1966 Proof Set So Special? This set is a little bit of a standout. 1966 was the last year the US Mint produced proof sets with 90% silver dimes, quarters, and half dollars. After that, they switched to clad compositions – basically, coins made with layers of copper-nickel. So, owning this set is like holding a piece of the "silver era" of American coinage. It’s a neat historical marker. What's in the 1966 Proof Set? The complete 1966 Proof Set includes: Penny (Lincoln Cent): A brilliant, shiny copper cent. Nickel (Jefferson Nickel): A beautiful, reflective nickel. Dime (Roosevelt Dime): This dime is 90% silver – a real gem for silver stackers and collectors! Quarter (Washington Quarter): Another 90% silver coin, with crisp details. Half Dollar (Kennedy Half Dollar): And you guessed it, this half dollar is also 90% silver. Original Government Packaging: This set comes in the original US Mint packaging – a dark blue holder that protects the coins and adds to its collectibility. Condition is Key The set Bella Hawk LLC has acquired is in truly outstanding condition. These coins haven't seen the light of day much, if at all. They’re free from the scratches, wear, or toning you often see in older coins. They’ve been carefully preserved, keeping their original luster and sharpness. It really does look like they were just struck yesterday. Who is this set for? This 1966 Proof Set is perfect for a few different types of collectors: Silver Stackers: With the 90% silver content in the dime, quarter, and half dollar, this set is a great addition to any silver portfolio. Date & Mintmark Collectors: Collectors who focus on completing sets by year and mint mark will appreciate this pristine example. Proof Set Collectors: If you collect proof sets, this is a must-have for your collection, especially considering it's from a key year before the switch to clad coinage. History Buffs: This set is a snapshot of a particular moment in American history. It’s a conversation starter and a beautiful piece to display. Why choose Bella Hawk LLC?
