Notes:
Proof sets of this year did not include the new Eisenhower Dollars
(40% Silver Proof "Ikes" were available only in
government-issued Brown Packs). Some of the sets include Proof
Nickels that were struck without the mintmark!
Tips:
Look for sets with as many "cameos" as possible, although it
is virtually impossible to find sets with five, fully frosted
coins. Make sure the case is uncracked and completely
sealed. Don't buy sets that are spotted or filmy. The outer
packaging is not so critical, but reject anything that is overly worn,
written upon, stickered, or torn. Be sure to check any set for the
"S"-less Nickel.
