Here is one of my recent acquisitions, a 1982-s Proof. I was wondering what grade it would get? I have no clue how to grade proofs. There is a little haze in the fileds on the Obv, but the Rev looks OK. Thanks
Curious, was this found in circulation? I always thought it would be odd to assign an AU grade or lower to the proofs I find in circulation, but assumed that would be the convention.
Actually, I bought it from a dealer... It was marked $2.75 but I talked him down to $1.50 because of the hazyness. What can I say, I'm a sucker for 1982 cents... I don't know why... I just am...
Its funny you mention the 1982 proof set. I just took some awesome photo's of my 1982 set Here is the cent http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02818.jpg http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02827.jpg http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02828.jpg Here is the Dime http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02817.jpg http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02829.jpg Complete Obverse http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02831.jpg Reverse http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02830.jpg Here is the nickel http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02819.jpg http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02826.jpg (how many stairs) Here is the Quarter http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02820.jpg http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02825.jpg Here is the Half http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02821.jpg http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02824.jpg Here is the Mint Token http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02822.jpg http://www.mrbrklyn.com/jul_30_2007/dsc02823.jpg
