Took me a very long time to find these, I suspect population of 1968 and 1969 Specimen sets is much less than 1965, less than 25 sets made? Certainly the rarer ones in my nickel dollar collection.

The 1968 is beautiful and fully struck. What is amazing, is that the 1969 specimen strikes I have seen, all are poorly struck, just like the Proof-like and business strikes are from the same date. If I did not see the set originally intact, I might have questioned it being a specimen strike at all...

That '68 really stands out. Nice nickel eye candy.
