Some of my halves came in for this week (2k) and a day before my other 4k coming tomorrow. Looked through them all but 1 box were pretty lack luster, 3rd box i looked at i found 14 -40%, 1973S Proof, 1987S Proof, 1996S Proof, and a 2008S Silver Proof (to what degree of silver it is i don't know, looks 90%). Here are a few quick pictures, sorry if some got a little fuzzy. Any values to the Proofs would be appreciated =)

Should have taken a close up pic also, the 2008s Proof on the reverse the initials say FC not FG, some minor something i assume probably nothing to effect any value.

Nice shots! I always have trouble getting closeups, particularly of proofs.

I take most all of my pics with the flash off, it seems to work better, at least with my camera, and set it to pc in image size. HH, Maverick.

If you are using a camera not cell phone, there should be a MACRO button, sometimes looks like a flower, turn it on and turn off flash. Macro setting helps you get close up pictures without as much fuzziness.

As a guy that lived in SD for 5 yrs I'm a big fan of that Mt. Rushmore, twiasp. Hope I find one like that some time.

The 1991-D is a Mount Rushmore commemorative, I bought one a while ago in the original mint packaging. A mintage of under 200,000, but only $18 in MS-67.
