NIFCS....in my experience expect anywhere from face value to 60¢ per
Proofs....will have an S mintmark
Don't forget your 87 P & D... those are NIFC as well and depending on condition can fetch a couple bucks

2. How can I identify clad proofs 1971-2001 from just shiny non-proof clads?

You'll also notice that they are much thicker and extremely shiny compared to the rest.

This has to be my best find to date. I will chalk this up to having the little guy helping. 2 Boxes today and I pulled 4 Franklins and 2 40% Kennedys, he himself pulled 2 Franklins as well. I am amazed at this find Especially up here in the Midwest. I figured I will never see another day like today so I took a pic and I'm going to share with you all. I am just as excited about the finds as my son was, its an amazing thing to see him having a good time doing roll hunting.

More important than your finds is that you shared the experience with your son. Keep up the good work. You are a great father.

Assuming all you have is silver and proofs, are collections more valuable in albums or stored in tubes?
Rest in Peace

Personal preference. As a dealer, I find it easier to work with stuff in tubes.
