Product Description
1978 Proof & Mint Set Pair -- These 1978 proof and mint sets were the final regular sets to include a traditional-size dollar coin; big Ikes would be replaced by small Susan B. Anthony dollars the following year. The five-coin proof set was one of the first San Francisco Mint sets to feature frosted engravings and mirror backgrounds. And the last 1978 Eisenhower dollar proof was issued only as part of this set. The 12-coin mint set features the final two Philadelphia and Denver Ike dollars. The set's output of 2.2 million was far below other mint sets of the era.
1989 Proof & Mint Set Pair -- This pair of affordable 1989 proof and mint sets contain issues of the year's cent, nickel, dime, quarter and half dollar in limited quantities. BU circulation mintages for these same coins were up to thousands of times higher. For example, more than 12.6 billion cents were struck for circulation in 1989, yet only 3,009,107 proof-quality 1,987,915 specially minted BU specimens were released as part of these collector's sets. This proof and mint set pair combines popularity, limited mintage and affordability!
1998 Proof & Mint Set Pair -- These 1998 proof and mint sets were the last to include the five traditional denominations before they were expanded to accommodate the State Quarter series in 1999. The proof set's relatively skimpy output of 2,086,507 is far less than any issued from 1961 to 1995. Likewise, the 1.2 million uncirculated sets produced in 1998 fell below some earlier 10-coin issues that retail for the same regular price or more. Included are specially minted BU specimens of both Philadelphia and Denver cents, nickels, dimes, quarters and half dollars.
