San Francisco also minted all denominations for circulation in 1965 - '67. Many of these were minted with retired SMS dies.
Many of the '82-NMM dimes were found in bags of Philly dimes that had been returned to the banks at the end of the seasin by Cedar Point Amusement...
The lettering all sits in intact PL fields. These are all EDS and vEDS.

Thanks GDJMSP. It's appreciated. With all that build up I better not be wrong. I've got a few more details. The PL obverse surfaces are...
It's no problem guys. I'm still waiting for someone to find one. ;)
I found a few rolls from mint sets and just "did the math". The sample size is still too small to get a highly accurate number but I'm about 90%...
Yeah, I know. You really need to ave both in front you to compare. In this case it's not quite as important to have both since the difference...
I believe I'm the first to discover it (just yesterday) or at least that no one has been letting on that it exists. These really are pretty...
Surprisingly enough it's a really dramatically different reverse that has escaped notice, probably because there are so many other interesting...
I have 2x2 and 1 1/2 x1 1/2 vinyl pages. mint and proof set holders. penny and nickel tubes. small selection of capital holders. Drop me a PM...
After 7 1/2 years of studying the Egyptian pyramids I can assure you that ALL coins are moderns. Of course the pyramids are modern compared to...
I checked eBay to see what was available and am somewhat surprised. Mostly because they are hard to find here as well. Also there's one now in...
Thanks for the info. I prefer to think of "they were all melted down" as simple hyperbole. It was used to highlight the fact that in the late...
This statement is extremely misleading. No doubt there were a few '54-G's still in circulation in this grade in the late-'90's before they were...
You might know more about it than I but I believe this $450 price is based on European grading. An XF will be a very nice lightly circulated...
There are a few difficulties here. SMS's are one of the tougher moderns to send in for a grade high enough to profit. These are still the red...
Thanks for the info. It's not surprising and peoples' tendency to collect anything different and ignore the mundane is why regular issues from...
I've seen some funny things going on with '66 SMS dates. I might be able to post photos very soon and will put them here if so.
They came from the mint in $1000 bags but after that it was anyone's guess what would happen. Solid date bags was the only way they were issued...
Separate names with a comma.
