rookienumie New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 07/31/2022 2:24 pm Hello folks, My very first post here - very new to this amazing hobby. I opened a 1976 proof set from Phil. and all of the silver coins have a yellow type of coloring - so based on my search it is a CAM grade. The weight is 22.5 - not a silver.. I did some research and the R on the reverse is separated from I in America. Also there are some odd brush stroke like damages or errors throughout the coin. I want to send it to be grated to PCGS but before I do that I want to find out if its worth doing it. Thank you all so much. Edited by rookienumie 07/31/2022 2:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jasper62 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 07/31/2022 2:29 pm If it was a proof it would have a S mint mark. Not a D mint mark. As far as grading goes it's in pretty rough shape IMHO (In my humble opinion) so I would not have it graded Edited by jasper62 07/31/2022 2:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff

nfine Pillar of the Community United States 3468 Posts	Posted 07/31/2022 2:49 pm That's an Eisenhower dollar, Kennedy is on the half dollar. It's a Type 1 (wide lettering on the reverse) variety, produced at the Denver mint. Report this Post to the Staff
nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 07/31/2022 3:15 pm the colors are probably due to outgassing from the set's plastic, perhaps amplified by storage in a hot environment, collectors would consider it environmental damage Report this Post to the Staff

cladboy Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 07/31/2022 5:17 pm Nothing out of the ordinary here. All I am seeing is another disappointing Type 1 Ike from a troubled 1975 mint set. I agree it is not worth getting graded. In fact, I'm an Ike nut and I'd take a hard pass on this coin. And you are correct. This is an amazing hobby. Welcome to our world.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/31/2022 9:19 pm Welcome and put your questions. I suggest next time look at the sets you buy, many improper storage and made the coins to be worthless. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/01/2022 2:42 pm The marks on the jaw are damage to the coin. (Not a good thing for a coin) Damage lowers any premium for the coin, that it could of had. The color is wearing off on the coin, so it was a toning process that coins go through.
