[QUOTE="Dockwalliper, post: 5849, member: 392"]I checked the red book for the 72 types. This has to do with the dies used. Here's what the RED Book says.....Low relief (var I) dies, with flattened world and three islands off Florida,were used for all copper-nickel issues of 1971, unc. silver of 1971 and most Copper-nickel coins of 1972. High relief (var II) dies, with round world and weak or indistinct islands, were used for all proofs of 1971, all silver issues of 1972, and the reverse of some exceptional and scarce Philadelphia copper-nickel coins of 1972. Improved high relief reverse dies (var III) were used for late 1972 Philadelphia copper-nickel coins and for all subsequent issues. Hope this helps. Note....I borrowed the pics in the previous post from eBay. :rolleyes:[/QUOTE]
