Why in the Dansco Eisenhower album with proofs are there slots for " S" coins in both BU and Proof. I thought all "S" mints were proof.

In 1971, 1972,1973,1974,and 1976 they produced 40% Silver Ikes in Blue envelopes that were considered circulation pieces there fore they would be graded MS(comon nickname Blue ikes). the were I guess maybe commerative pieces in away, not really intended for circulation and they also produced 40 % Silver Proof Ikes for those years as well the came in A similar rectangular proof like Holder in a brown Box ( common nickname brown Ikes)
