    I usually pick up a couple boxes of half-dollars a week to go through and pull silver/proofs/commems and other cool stuff. One of the boxes I picked up were all brand new 2001 halves. This is the third box this year with never finding anything worth keeping , until now. I was edge searching a roll and noticed an edge that looked way different than every other coin in the box . So I pulled the coin and it ended up being this! My first blank planchet find! DSC_0062-1.jpg DSC_0064-2.jpg DSC_0063-1.jpg

    Is it a USA planchet?

    Yes it came out of an unopened box of 2001 U.S. halves.

    Just curious on why the half dollar blank planchets are worth so much more than say a blank dime planchet?

    Depends on rarity. Blank cent planchets are $5.
