<p>[QUOTE="cladking, post: 24295, member: 68"]The type 1 dies were used up through about July of 1975 and then the type 2 were used to the end of 1976. There are major differences on both the obverse and reverse and there are no known mules. The most obvious difference on the obverse is a much more promenent crease in Ikes neck on the type 2. Production of the type 1's was limited and quality is generally quite poor especially for the Philly issues. All '75 mint sets contain type 1's and all '76 sets contain type 2's. There are also two different clad proof issues as well. In those days mint set and regular issue mintages were combined when totals were released. (changed around '99) There have been quite a few different mintage figures for the type 1 Philly, but some are under 4,000,000.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
