<p>[QUOTE="Ion2, post: 3293179, member: 100211"]Ok, I asked this question in the middle of someones elses post and didn't get much of a response. (guess it was not to way to do it) so here it is again on a clean post. </p><p><br /></p><p>I was given this four date proof set by my father back in the 1970's and having retired thought I would haul it out and take a look. My reading tells me a couple of coins, the 1970 No S Dime and the 1971 No S Nickel are special. I'm new to all this and trying to learn so as not to do something stupid! So my question here is how best to proceed to evaluate and possibly market the coins. Do I pull the two special ones out and have them graded leaving the rest. Do I send those to some auction house? Or would it be better to keep the set together? Are there other coins in the batch that would bare having them graded or looked at? The 1970 penny might be a small date also... but frankly my novice eyes don't tell me much.</p><p>So... I would appreciate any guidance you pro's can push my way.

Took some pic's so I'll do my best to add them.</p><p>Thanks in advance in advance....</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]871040[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]871041[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]871044[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]871042[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]871043[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
