Lemons22 New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 05/10/2015 05:38 am Trying to learn about proof coins and this seemed to look different than all the other 1990 I have come a crossed. It looks more glossy and shiny than all the others, and I read about a 1990 no S. So I figured I would see if I could get some more information about it. Any extra info will help. Thank you Report this Post to the Staff

Rackster Pillar of the Community United States 4809 Posts	Posted 05/10/2015 09:32 am Hi Lemons - over time, you will probably find an impaired proof (a proof released to circulation) or two. They are out there. As noted by our fellow enthusiasts, you have a nice 1990 Philly specimen there. MS specimens will fetch a pretty penny (actually, many-many pretty pennies) so keep an eye out for these prime examples. Good luck finding error/variety coins!! Report this Post to the Staff
