50 cents 1982 - small or large beads?

Post by AlexQc » Tue May 11, 2021 7:19 am

I have this since my childhood. They are mint in their tray. I was going to get rid of them today but I saw that maybe the 50 cent is worth something...

Do I have the small or large beads version? What about the grading (the scratches and spots are on the plastic case not the coins)?

That is the Large Bead Variety.
It was taken from a Proof Set so they would all be Large Bead, probably grade around PR67 UHC.
Hard to tell without the coin in hand.

Thanks for the info. As for the general value of these 3? Are they worth anything (I have no clue as how coins are graded)?

Hello and welcome! :D

These are proof coins. The nickel dollar might worth a couple dollars not certified. :)
