Chocolate Coins

My little girl has her first communion this Sunday and afterwards they all give candy to each other. Of course my daughter will be giving out chocolate wrapped in foil stamped with the images of 1964 Kennedy Half Dollars. Who knows might be a future collector because of this, and they taste good too.

I always used to love getting chocolate coins because of the actual designs on them. The chocolate inside wasn't the best, but after eating it I would always keep the foil and make a coin out of it... then I started collecting real coins, lol

You never know, you just never know. Believe it or not the choclate Buffalo Nickels cost more than the Kennedy Half Dollars.

That brings back memories. I didn't know they still made those. Now it's off to the store for some.

I'm not sure, but I think she ordered them from some company on line.

Yes I'm sure you can get them at the store. But, the ones my wife got all were BU and with CAC stickers on them.

worst part is that some of the fly by night companys might actually grade them.

Mint Chocolate-70? I'd eat that! I'd submit some to your grading service, but I'm afraid all I'd get back are the wrappers with a "Genuine" tag.
