1982 United States Proof Set, 6 Coins Inside. The 1982-S Proof Set is one of the more affordable modern issue sets. Sales were down from 1981, but the mintage was 3.8 million to fill collector demand.Each set contained five coins: One example each of the Lincoln Cent, Jefferson Nickel, Roosevelt Dime, Washington Quarter, and Kennedy Half Dollar. A sixth piece, a Proof Treasury Token in Bronze, was included to fill the hole occupied in the previous years by the Anthony Dollar.About the sets: All coins in the 1982-S Proof Set were intended to have a Cameo or Deep Cameo Finish.All of the Cents in the 1982-S Proof Sets are of the Large Date variety, and all are of the old bronze composition (as opposed to the newer Copper-plated Zinc). Reportedly, some Proof Small Date Cents were struck in Bronze, but none have been seen, and all were supposedly destroyed. On the Large Date Cents, the 2 of the date is close to the rim; on the Small Date Cent, the date is far away from the rim.Mintage: 3,857,479 setsOriginal packaging: The coins of the 1982-S Proof Set were placed in individual holes in a red plastic insert, then sealed in a two-piece, clear plastic case. The clear plastic case containing the coins slid into a molded, black plastic frame, with the raised silver letters "UNITED STATES PROOF SET" for storage.For display purposes, the frame served as a base for the case containing the coins, which fit into a slot in the frame. A black card slipcase, imprinted in silver with the words: "United States Proof Set • 1982", protected both the case and the frame.
