I believe I have the quarter, it is clad. Dime, nickel, and penny I may have. A lot of coins to go through.

Just a suggestion, but if you are going to collect the bicentennial coins. Spend a little more, get graded coins or proofs at the least. They are available, not terribly expensive and easy to find. If you buy a graded coin on eBay or anywhere for that matter, certify the number is real for that coin.

i bought this Pf69 for just $13

You will find that the penny,nickel and dime have no visible difference from ordinary issues.   There’s 3- coin sets from the mint as well. I agree that the clad can be had $10-20 slabbed 69. $20-35 for silver    It’s overlooked and a good value  happy hunting 👍🏼

Anyone looking for super high grade (MS67-68)... you will get a better price on the silver editions.  Clad gets pricey in business strikes in high grade.   Proofs also come beautiful and economical when compared to their Philly and Denver counterparts.

Always looking for nice coins. If proof coins it has to be; then as long as I'm within my budget I should have no issues finding them.

I appreciate all the great advice and comments. So thank you all.

They have them on Ebay for around $25.  Just type in 1976 mint proof set.

I got this one from a dealer who was going out of business but what Hoghead said was correct E-Bay  has them all over the place. They make a clad set also it may be cheaper.

I also collect bicentennial coins. Graduated from HS in 1976. Just got this Ike in the mail today.
