I'd hang onto the 69s as well. They are a lower mintage than the 68, but not as popular since there was a mint set in 69. I think the missing SDs might be found in 66,67,68 and 81.

If you haven't already, grab my Decimal Mintages PDF: http://goo.gl/CdA7n
Its still a work in progress, but still useful even in its rough form.
