Rediscovering History: AXIS TREE WORKS LLC Brings 1980s Proof Sets to Collectors

AXIS TREE WORKS LLC, based in Newport, Oregon, isn’t your typical tree service – though they are pretty good at that too! This unique company, located at 9837 Yaquina Bay Rd, 97365-9647, and reachable at 802-405-6220, has a surprising passion alongside their arboreal expertise: collecting and sharing historical treasures. And right now, they're focused on bringing a piece of the 1980s back to life with their fantastic collection of 1980s Proof Sets. Now, you might be asking, “AXIS TREE WORKS… and coins?” It’s a fair question! Founder and owner, a bit of a history buff themselves, started collecting coins as a hobby years ago. Over time, that hobby blossomed into a genuine passion for preserving and sharing these little slices of the past. “We realized there’s a lot of people out there who remember the 80s fondly, or who are interested in American history, and these proof sets are a really cool way to connect with that,” they explained. “Plus, it keeps things interesting for us!” So, what is a proof set? Simply put, it’s a special, meticulously crafted collection of coins produced by the U.S. Mint, designed specifically for collectors. These aren't your everyday pocket change. They're made with a special process that results in a brilliant, mirror-like finish – seriously, they shine. The mint strikes these coins multiple times, using highly polished dies, to achieve that extra level of detail and quality. Think of it like the difference between a quick sketch and a detailed, hand-drawn masterpiece. But why the 1980s specifically? “The 80s were a pretty dynamic time in American history,” the owner notes. “You had a changing political landscape, the rise of new technologies, and a really distinctive culture. The coins from that era reflect a lot of that.” And honestly, a lot of us remember the 80s with a smile – the big hair, the neon colors, the iconic movies. A 1980s proof set is a fun way to tap into that nostalgia. AXIS TREE WORKS LLC’s sets span various years throughout the 1980s, from 1980 all the way through 1989. Each set typically includes a complete collection of coins circulated that year – pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, half dollars (when issued), and a silver dollar (in certain years). They're all presented in a protective, official U.S. Mint packaging, which helps keep them in pristine condition. Now, let's talk about what makes these proof sets really special. It's not just about the shiny finish. Proof coins are made with a higher level of precision and care than regular circulation coins. The mint uses special techniques to ensure that every detail is crisp and clear. This means you can really appreciate the artistry of the coin designs – things like the depiction of Abraham Lincoln on the penny, or the majestic eagle on the silver dollar. These sets aren’t just for looking at, though. They’re also considered a solid investment. While coin values can fluctuate, historically, proof sets have tended to hold their value – and sometimes even increase in value – over time, especially those in excellent condition. This makes them a great option for both collectors and those looking for a tangible asset. “We’ve seen a lot of interest from people who are starting their coin collections, as well as seasoned collectors looking to fill gaps in their sets,” the owner shares. “It’s rewarding to connect people with a piece of history that they can really enjoy.” AXIS TREE WORKS LLC is committed to providing high-quality products and excellent customer service.
