1979 Type II mintmark

Does anyone have a good photo of Type II vs. Type I mintmark on the 1979 proof dollar. And, am I right...it is only the dollar in the proof set whose mint mark differs?

Thanks!

    The best picture of type I & II is in the Red Book. It is under the SBAs. That goes for both 79 & 81.
    And all the coins in both sets can be either I or II. They can be mixed types but generally the 81 type II is a solid set.
    The most money I made are on coins I haven't sold.

    Got quoins?

    Here is a page that shows good photos of each type. Although the photos are from SBAs, they are the same for the other coins.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

  • Thanks, Kranky! Perfect!
