Does the 1971-S proof NON Peg Leg Ike dollar bring any kind of premium?

I have been going thru a hoard of 1971-S brown Ike dollars looking for the type 1 reverse and have found some 1971-S Proof Non peg leg varieties. Any premium value for these? Thanks in advance.

    Actually, you'll probably get a better chance of a premium with a Peg Leg one.

    Thanks Gandyjai.image
    Out of 86 1971-S proofs:
    Pegleg- 60
    Non Pegleg- 23
    I did find a few of the 1971-S proof pegleg Ikes that look very weak at the bottom part of the Pegleg, kind of like the bottom of the peg leg rotted away.

    Seriously, does either variety bring a premium over the other?
