How to read these values

Approximate U.S. dollar ranges across available regular-strike mint and color variants in each grade band. Proofs, errors, special finishes and grades above MS65 are excluded. A dash means no quoted value is available; a single amount means only one price is represented. Open the year guide to match your exact coin.
