[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2239783, member: 112"]I think you have to do a better job of defining exactly what coins you are talking about.

You get a different outcome if you are talking about Proofs or regular strikes - and I say regular strikes because collector coins are not business strikes. You also get different outcomes if you are talking about modern commems in both Proof and business strikes. And you also have to throw the date question into the mix. For example, with ASE Proofs, maybe as high as 40-60% can be 70s, or as low as 25%. With regular strikes 20-25% 70s.
