They both appear to have Bicentennial Dollar, Half and Quarter. Or are they different type of Dollar? I suspect the different in Dime, Nickel and Penny. Am I that right or wrong? It looks to me like this is another doubling. Samuel tan

I believe the cent, nickel, and dime are dated 1975 in the 75 set and 1976 in the 76 set. The dollars in the 75 set are type 1 and the dollars in the 76 set are type 2.

The difference between the 75 and 76,besides one year, is the Bicentennial.The 76 has a different reverse on the half and quarter.

I haven't pulled out my sets but I think the half and the quarter are the same in both sets.

Quote: I believe the cent, nickel, and dime are dated 1975 in the 75 set and 1976 in the 76 set. The dollars in the 75 set are type 1 and the dollars in the 76 set are type 2. This is correct. In summary: The dual-dated Bicentennial Half Dollar and Quarter Dollar are the same in both. The dual-dated Bicentennial Eisenhower is a Variety I in the 1975 set and a Variety II in the 1976 set. The cent, nickel, and dime are all dated accordingly (1975 or 1976).

Halfwitty Posted - Today :3 Hrs 12 Min ago The difference between the 75 and 76,besides one year, is the Bicentennial.The 76 has a different reverse on the half and quarter.I would like to know more about the different reverse. Red Book didn't say anything, KM says 1975 none minted. Please let me know. Thanks, Samuel tan

I think Haffwitty's response confused him an he is asking about a different in the bicentennial quarter an half between the 75 and 76 issues. Short answer, there aren't any. If you talking about the differences between the type I and II bicentennial Ike dollars the RedBook should discuss them. I always find it is easiest to tell the two apart by looking at the last S in STATES. On the type I the tail of the S goes halfway up the E. On the type II it barely makes it to the top of the bottom bar of the E.

Wow. This is a classic thread. Remember, be careful about what you read in forums. Sometimes the information/comments are just plain wrong. And in this case, very confusing. When I have questions like this, I go to ebay. Search 'em out. You'll find a couple with really great pics and that should answer most of your questions.
