<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 2642986, member: 24633&quot;]If you have a copy of the &quot;Guide Book of United States Coins&quot; commonly referred to as the Red Book go to the Index and look for &quot;Proof Sets&quot;. If you scroll through the years beginning with 1968S and ending with 1990S, you will find a number of listings with &quot;No S&quot; listed for one of the coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>You see, all of the proof coins are supposed to have the mintmark for San Francisco (S), but in a few cases, a proof die was used that did not bear the mintmark. These coins are very rare and command a substantial premium.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, there are plenty of imbeciles on BoobTube and SleazeBay who think that just because they find a circulated coin produced in the same year as those sets it is worth a bunch. They don&#039;t take the time to learn that circulated coins struck in Philadelphia did not bear the mintmark for Philadelphia (P).</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
