1978 half dollar square jewels variety.  1982 half dollar, I believe its the Lg Bead variety. Please correct me if I am wrong.  1977 nickel, I believe its the High 7 variety, again correct me if I am wrong.  |

 Those seem right to me...nice coins! And yes--the way I tell a "High 7" is the second 7 feels slightly higher. Your photo is a good example to see this.

Your assumptions are correct nds76, Now if you can find the 1978 round jewel, The 1982 small beads, and the 1977 low 7 Your laughing   |

Speaking of the 5c 1977 low, I was always sceptical about the one I have. Mine could be MS-65+ but there is this small hairline over the tail (not visible on picture). Your thoughts? Marc PS. I found a 50c 1982 SB from a junk lot I won on eBay! Image:  1977low.jpg65.66 KB

Marc-- Yours is a 77 low; I'm pretty sure on that one, but can be definitive with larger/sharper pics. Compare this to NDS76's copy, and the difference is pretty obvious: Low 7  High 7 |

Marc, nice shot! I'm positive that's a Low 7 from the shape and position.  |

Yesssss!  Speaking of the 1982 50c SB variety, although we talk about large/small beads I find the relief differences to be another factor for identification. Marc Image: 1982sb.jpg100.69 KB

Yep, the larger pics looks to me like a SB. Uh...where did you find that?  Nice.  |
