The 1982 U.S. Proof Coin Set contains a proof Kennedy half dollar, Washington quarter, Jefferson nickel, Roosevelt dime and Lincoln one-cent coin produced by the San Francisco Assay Office. These are the only coins to have the ‘S’ mint mark in 1982.
This year’s set also includes a proof medal featuring the Treasury seal and the date 1789 on the obverse and an eagle and the inscription United States Proof Sets on the reverse. The medal was specially designed for the 1982 sets.
Proof coins are struck from specially prepared (non-silver) blanks. Each coin is struck twice with highly polished dies to assure a mirror-like finish, with each coin packaged in the set and bearing the ‘S’ mint mark. The coins are sealed in a newly-designed plastic package which protects and displays the set.

These coins have never been handled or removed from the case. They are sealed in a clear, hard plastic case with a bright red-colored background, and all of that enclosed in the mint’s original decorated box. Condition is AS NEW. (6310)
Many people give these as gifts – here’s something memorable for someone you know was born in 1982 or who’ll be celebrating a birthday in a year ending in ‘2’!
