  • Lincoln Cent
  • Jefferson Nickel
  • Roosevelt Dime
  • Washington Quarter
  • Kennedy Half Dollar
  • Eisenhower Dollar (notable as the final year of issue for the large-size "Ike" dollar before the transition to the small Susan B. Anthony dollar) 
Key Specifications & Features
  • Mintage: 3,127,781 sets 
  • Original Issue Price: $9.00 from the U.S. Mint 
  • Finish: Struck multiple times from specially polished dies to create mirrored, cameo-style fields. 
  • Packaging: The coins are sealed in a two-piece clear plastic holder (lens) with a red/dark insert, housed inside a black cardboard sleeve or box printed with "United States Proof Set 1978". 
  • Market Value: Typically trades between $10 and $25 depending on the condition of the coins and original government packaging (OGP). High-grade certified specimens (such as PR70 Deep Cameo) can command much higher prices at auction

All of our proof and mint sets are considered “retail friendly” unless otherwise specified.   This means that our sets contain the coins, packaging, and COA if applicable.  Sets may have minor wear and tear of their packaging but will not have any major rips or damage to their packaging.
