1980 U.S. Proof Set w/USSR 50 Ruble Note

The “Miracle on Ice” Proof Set

When ABC sportscaster Al Michaels screamed: “Do you believe in miracles? YES!” it captured the heart of the nation as America’s 1980 Men’s Olympic Hockey Team defeated the heavily favored Russians 4-3. The underdog squad of college kids led by coach Herb Brooks had defeated the greatest hockey team on earth and would go on to win the gold two days later by downing Finland 4-2.

This set contains proof versions of all of America’s circulating coins from 1980 — the Lincoln Cent, Jefferson Nickel, Roosevelt Dime, Washington Quarter and Kennedy Half Dollar. Each coin was expertly crafted by the United States Mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields. Each set will come beautifully housed in a special themed a 3" x 5" custom display holder. As an added bonus, you will also receive a 1961 Soviet Union 50 Rubles note, just like those that circulated in the USSR during the 1980 Winter Olympics held at Lake Placid, New York.

The U.S. Men’s Hockey Team proved it was the best of the best—just like these coins. Don’t miss your chance to get the proof coins of 1980, the same year of the historic Miracle on Ice, one of the biggest underdog stories in American sports history!
