The blank for 1914 is a perfect example of how poor Whitman is with proof reading data. All this info is from the 2008 Redbook which went to press in March, 2007. Prices are intended to represent PR63 grade for whatever that means. Steve

Of course these prices are for PCGS slabbed coins. both redbook and pcgs will gladly and lovingly inform you that pcgs coins sell at a premium
Redbook prices do not reflect this premium as prices. I picked 65RD becuase I feel that is the grade most commonly thought of as "niiiiiice" for coins
that are not spectacular rarities.
