My2cent Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 03/19/2021 01:42 am I'm not used to having a mint set let alone the history about them but I am wondering if this is supposed to look like this? I don't really get any half dollars so I unfortunately can't remember what it should look like. Edited by My2cent 03/19/2021 01:55 am Report this Post to the Staff

Numiscrat Valued Member United States 221 Posts	Posted 03/19/2021 02:13 am It's a proof set coin. So, it will look different from the business strikes meant for circulation or put in "mint" sets of uncirculated coins. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/19/2021 09:34 am Here is the highest grade proof DCam listing: PR-70 DCam https://www.PCGS.com/cert/07714932 That grade is the highest, and only $70 for the value. Hardly worth getting a slab for it.? PR-66 DCam https://www.PCGS.com/cert/39048034 $6.00 Why spend big money to have a coin come back as a $6 price tag? Fees were probably close to $50. Not worth the grading fees for this one. Report this Post to the Staff

My2cent Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 03/19/2021 1:05 pm This is a proof set that was given to me as a gift about a month ago. Since I have heard about so many errors on them I just was taking a closer look. I haven't tried to open it nor will I try in the future. I was just curious about the 86 of the date and BE of liberty on the obverse. Also if E Pluribus Unum was supposed to be that thick and bubbled.
