TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 12:00 am Woooooo Hoooooo! UNBELIEVABLE! No S 1978 Ike found in my extra Proof sets box! Was looking to put up a bulk listing on ebay, a date run (1968 to 1981) of some of the less popular proof sets and glad I took a closer look. I don't think I've ever seen or heard of this one before and wonder what it could be worth? Not in my RedBook? Gotta be 5 grand at least! I think it is better to leave it in the case than to crack it out? Maybe I can get a new car? Report this Post to the Staff

All that remains is the empty lens, the coins live in their appropriate Dansco now.
