Curious what this 1978 50¢ piece would grade mostly, but am also curious what the others would also grade...

Seems having "SQUARE JEWELS" on a 1978 50¢ piece coin is a huge bonus, especially when it shows in the new 2013 Charlton Cat. that its $20 for an MS-63, MS-64 is $30, MS-65 is an amazing $125 while the MS-66 brings $250!

Thing is, I'm unsure whats looked @ to determin an MS to an SP or a PR on this coin & most other coins for that matter as there is a huge price differential from any MS to either SP or PR it seems, especially on the 1978 50¢ piece!?!?

I added a few 1978 Canadian dollar coins that I took pics of @ the same time that I think are PMD, but ...
Any comments on these are also appreciated...

The book shows the 1969 in MS-66 @ $200 & SP-66 is $250 while SP-67 is $500!
It shows the PR-67 & PR-68 with a "*", which indicates nobody has sent one in thats been graded in any of the PR's...

Curious what the 1969 & or the 1970 falls under? MS, SP or PR?

The 1970 also has a crazy price on both MS & SP:
-->MS-66($100)
-->SP-66($100)
-->SP-67($300)
-->stars in both the 67-PR & the 68-PR.

I got these from the bank for spot, so I cant complain either way...

I looked @ page 192 of the 2013 Charlton CANADIAN CONS Volume One, Numismatic Issue
& it shows MP-67 instead of MS-67 I believe...(bottom of page 1997 to 2000w 50¢ pieces)
