1976-S Proof Ikes

I'll try again and see if anyone can give me some info.
Here is a pic. (lousy, but do able:)
Ike from one of my 1976 United States Proof Sets. Six coin set
in the black box.
It has the type 1 reverse. The other set has the type 2 reverse. Has anyone else seen the type 1 ike in this proof set before. Does anyone know if this was common or is it scarce ?
Thanks.

H'mmm

I know they minted both as you can see below. (proofs)
But was mine just a mistake in the packaging at the mint ?
Or was the box marked incorrectly ? Could it of been a 1975
proof set ? I have one other set but with no box. They both look exactly the same (bicent. S quarter,half,ike) but the other coins in it are 1976. The one I am discussing all of the other coins are all 1975 . Pretty confusing.

1976-S Clad Type 1 2,845,450 (Regular annual set)
1976-S Clad Type 2 4,149,730 (Regular annual set)

Close, but no cigar.

40% Ikes, which weigh 9% more than two 40% halves, were made in 1971s-1974s.

Unc were in blue envelopes similar to mint sets and pre-65 proof sets, except nicer paper, and sold for $3.

Proof were in ridiculously oversize brown boxes (bigger than GSA CC). The outer lid slides off, the inside has a dollar in a GSA or 68-71 proof set size holder in a brown codbod box with a die-cut hole, so you can see the reverse. They sold for $10, and resold for under issue price for decades.

76s 40% Ikes also came two ways:

Unc and proof were in sets of the three commems.

Unc were in a red envelope similar to blue packs, inside, the three coins were in mint-set type plastic, with a colorful codbod frame, unless someone has FACTS to the contrary, these $ were type II. These sold for $9, IIRC.

Proof were in a white light codbod sleeve. In it was a styrofoam block, with the coins in capsules in three die-cuts, and a foldout holder in the other part of the foam. All these $ were type I.

They pushed these first. $15 each, or $12 if you bought quantity, 50 I think. They finally melted some when they couldn't get rid of them a couple years later, IIRC.

Not as hard as the 75q in the post just above yours.

I knew the lighting was wrong, but I thought someone would catch it. I have a lot of other odd years as well.

But then both sets that I have also have the 75 n,d,q in them. Weird proof sets.
