Just ran across this thread. The nickel dollar is one of my favorites and I have the set. Here is a scan of my 1982's.

Well, 1986-87 is the end of my series. You probably noticed that I did not post the past few years, because it felt like I was the only one posting, and someone even said so, so I decided to give the floor to others... if interested in seeing the series from 1980 to 1986, you can go here: http://www.pcgs.com/SetRegistry/all...aspx?s=82059

The scanner I use has a lot of trouble getting the colour right. Even brightening the image, it still comes out way darker than in real life.

SPP, if you have some beauties then by all means you should have showed them to us! We want to see them!
This is a coin forum and its irrelevant whether one person or several are sharing the floor.
Glenzy showcased his collection and all members were glad to see his prized possessions :)
