A favorite annual release for beginning and experienced collectors alike is the U.S. Mint’s Proof coin sets, containing sharp-relief proof editions of each coin denomination in a given year. Most prized are the silver Proof sets: especially the Premier versions which complemented their visually stunning coinage with an ornate display case. One of the most limited mintages occurred in 1997, which saw only a few hundred thousand silver sets created and just over 136,000 silver Premier sets sold. The Silver.com team is proud to offer the 1997 US Mint Silver Premier Proof Set for online purchase.

Coin Highlights:

  • Still delivered in its display-type original mint packaging!
  • Issued in 1997 by the U.S. Mint!
  • Supplied from an unusually limited original mintage!
  • Contains a Kennedy half dollar, Washington quarter and Roosevelt dime struck in 90% silver.
  • Also includes a Jefferson nickel and Lincoln cent of standard composition.
  • Total silver content comes to just under 0.615 Troy oz (or just over 19 grams).
  • Each coin’s face value is backed by the United States government.
  • Packaging can show signs of wear, but the coins remain beautiful and elegant.

The 1997 US Mint Silver Premier Proof Set still comes in its original mint display-ready packaging. At this point, that packaging may show signs of wear, but the coins within remain in excellent condition.

The current tradition of the U.S. Mint’s annual Proof set offering goes back almost nine decades, to 1936, but the overall history of American proof coin sets goes back much further. The first American proof coins appeared in 1817, and the first series of proof sets to be created with numismatics and the collectors’ market in mind actually began in 1858, with regular annual releases until 1916. It was the looming prospect of America’s entry into the Great War (WW1) that finally brought an end to those releases. That interrupted tradition was finally resumed thirty years later and continues to the present day.

This set contains a Lincoln Cent and a Jefferson Nickel of standard composition, and a Roosevelt Dime, Washington Quarter, and Kennedy Half Dollar in 90% silver. The obverse fields feature busts of each President along with “1997” as the year of issue. The reverse fields each carry their own design along with the coin’s face value and the inscription “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
