So there's an empty slot in my Lincoln cents warman's folder for a 1982 S. According to every piece of literature I can find this is a proof coin. There are no other slots for proofs in this folder. What gives? Am I missing something?

to CCF!

The '82-S would be a proof coin. I have never heard of Warman. Maybe an error/typo?

You are right,an 82s is a proof. There is a large and small date for 82,maybe that is what they want there!That was also the changeover to the zinc core.

Hello, long time reader first time poster.
Warmans books are bad about this. They don't like to leave the blank spots at the end like Whitman so they throw in random S mints to fill it in. I bought the Kennedy books and they have about 10 S mints at random points. No rhyme or reason to it.

Ok, thanks. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't some coin I was overlooking.

As for the warman's folders, everythings going to be moved to danscos gradually as I can afford them and sets become completed. It's almost time to buy the nickel and state quarter albums. I can ignore the empty slot in the folder for now.

A bit off-topic, but I actually found one of these while roll-hunting cents... in Canada!

Proof cents must almost never show up in circulation -- after all, did the spender really need the 1 cent??

I sledom hear people finding them on roll-hunting threads.

So I wondered briefly if a few proofs actually get sent out into the wild somehow. Probably not, but it's a neat idea.

I found a 1980s in my bank rolls just a few days ago also.
