    My father, who is an avid CRH, found this Oregon Trail Commem in a roll this week. Cool find and has been rescued from the roll. Oregon Trail Obverse.jpg Oregon Trail Reverse.jpg

    That is beautiful. I'd take that over an MS honestly. The color is perfect!

    WOW!! That has to be one of the coolest CRH finds I've seen. I would have been dancing around the house looking like an idiot for a week if I found one of those. :happy:

    Awesome find. In all of the thousands of halves I've ever CRH'ed, I've only found one "classic commemorative", and it is not as cool as that one. Congrats to your dad!
