need to use a microscope on the '81-S proof to determine if it's Type 1 or 2, the 25X loupe can't reveal the difference in shape of the S. the 83-P has a mean die clash that is barely visible in photo due to dreary rainy day lighting. 92-P has full steps, Buffs are always a treat- '29-D and '30. '99 "V" nic a bit worn but we aint's complainin'. box 3 has so far produced a '50 (no D), '45-P, '45-D, '82-D FS, '91-P FS and '47 George Canadian. IMG_0608.JPG IMG_0609.jpg .

A 25X loupe should be plenty to tell the difference. I can see the difference with a 10X loupe. Nice finds anyway.

Edit: It's the 1979 proof with the different mint marks, not the 81.
