Even though the anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence was a year away, the US Mint began issuing its bicentennial coins in 1975. This meant that for the 1975 Proof Set, the Washington quarter, Kennedy half-dollar, and Eisenhower dollar all contained the special anniversary designs, as well as the double dates of 1776-1976. These sets offer collectors an excellent opportunity to engage with coin history and to obtain proof specimens at a relatively low price.
Each 1975 US Mint Set in this JM Bullion listing online will arrive with elegant presentation packaging. This consists of a holder with spaces for all six coins against a red velvet backdrop. Also included is a black flap containing the words United States Proof Set, 1975. Each of these coins includes a stunning proof finish, which gives the fields a mirror-like quality and the devices a frosted appearance.
The obverse of the coins in these 1975 Proof Sets features various presidential portraits. The one-cent piece depicts Abraham Lincoln, the nickel Thomas Jefferson, and the dime Franklin D. Roosevelt. For the bicentennial coins, you will see George Washington on the quarter, John F. Kennedy on the half-dollar, and Dwight D. Eisenhower on the dollar.
On the reverse sides of the coins in US Mint Proof Sets, there are distinct designs for each. The Lincoln penny shows the Lincoln Memorial, the Jefferson nickel the Monticello house, and the Roosevelt dime a torch with an olive and oak branch. On the reverse of the Washington quarter, you will see a colonial drummer, on the Kennedy half-dollar a rendering of Independence Hall, and on the Eisenhower dollar, the Liberty Bell superimposed against the full moon.
