The Silver Proof Set continues to be a popular choice among collectors, with sales reaching 636,009 sets in 1994. The Set contains five coins, three of which are struck in 90% silver. These Proof coins are struck specifically for collectors. The sharp details of the foreground and the shiny, mirror-like surfaces in the background give the coins stunning eye appeal, appearing almost three-dimensional. These extremely popular sets were struck at the San Francisco Mint. JM Bullion has the 1994 US Mint Silver Proof Sets available for purchase right now.

In this third year of release, the Silver Proof Sets continue to include the copper-nickel clad versions of the Lincoln Cent and Jefferson Nickel, and the 90% silver/10% copper versions of the Roosevelt Dime, Washington Quarter, and Kennedy Half Dollar. Purchasing the Silver Proof Set was the only way for collectors to obtain these 90% silver proof coins. The amount of silver content of the Dime, Quarter, and Half Dollar in these sets resulted in an original purchase price of $21.00 for the set.
The packaging of the 1994 Silver Proof Set continues with the distinctive black look introduced with the first Silver Proof Set in 1992. The word Silver is again clearly printed on the lens to distinguish this set from the regular Proof Set. Each coin is placed in an individual space in the black cardboard, which is then placed inside the plastic lens. This is placed into the black outer box, which displays a silver edge.
The US Mint again offered 4 different Proof Sets for collectors to choose from. The regular Proof Set and the Prestige Proof set continue to contain the standard composition versions of the Cent, Nickel, Dime, Quarter, and Half Dollar. The Proof Set had an original price of $12.50. The Prestige Proof Set additionally contained the 1994 World Cup Commemorative Half and Dollar coins, with an original price of $57.00. The Silver Premier Set contains the same coins as the Silver Proof Set (standard composition Cent and Nickel, 90% silver Dime, Quarter, and Half Dollar), but with an original price of $37.50 due to its much more ornate packaging.
