 EVERY YEAR THE US MINT PUTS OUT SETS THAT INCLUDE EXAMPLES OF ALL THE COINS ISSUED FOR THAT YEAR---YESTER DAY I GOT A PROOF SET WHICH INCLUDED 18 DIFFERENT COINS---LATER IN THE YEAR I WILL RECEIVE A SET OF P AND D COINS--P FOR PHILADELPHIA AND D FOR DENVER--IT WILL BE A TOTAL OF 36 COINS--UNBELIEVABLE!--I DON'T KEEP UP WITH FOREIGN MINTS--DO THEY EQUAL THE OUT PUT OF THE US FOR ONE YEAR---I MUST MENTION THAT THIS DOESN'T INCLUDE COMMEMORATIVES !

When I first started collecting (1956), there was only the standard denominations available.  In addition, proof sets could be ordered.

Today, the Treasury Department has discovered real cash cows -- us.

Even so, I find it exciting to have all the new coins.  I don't see how the mints keep up.
