How do I get the "S-Mints"? Easy: They're not rare!:
109,576,000 1979-San Francisco SBA Dollars were minted for circulation. (This is more than the 1980 SBA output for all three mints (P,D,S) combined!)
20,422,000 1980-San Francisco SBA Dollars were minted for circulation.

You may as well keep your set, but really the value of the uncirculated-condition business strike 1979-80 SBA's in your set is around $1.50 each 'retail' (so $9 for the set). At least you didn't pay $30 on ebay, because that really would make us cry (tears of pity!
)
The purpose of this forum is to educate people so that they don't pay $30 for a set of common SBA's like this on ebay.
If you paid $12, that's not a 'tragic' overpay like $30 would be!
The Treasury is still storing Millions of 1979-80 (and 1999) SBA's, and new uncirculated SBA's appear in the Light Rail change fairly regularly (like the 1999 I just got!).
