Just for the record, I didn't want this thread to be specifically about my coin, but rather a potential reference to help discern SMS coins from...
I've gotten two of what I believe to be SMS Kennedy Halves out of circulation. There were many other proofs in the same box of halves (including...
OK, As I understand it, the US Mint issued SMS sets, as opposed to Proof Sets, in the years of 1965, 1966, 1967. In searching the internet,...
For trick coins, that is what one side would look like before the coin gets adhered to something else (usually a disappearing coin trick or a two...
Something that doesn't get stated enough and most new collectors would never even think of. Buy yourself some mylar currency holders. As you...
I'm so much happier with my coin collection now that I only pay face value for everything I collect. I don't get to pick which gems I'll get this...
It is theorized that so many dealers stocked newer currency (pre-1996 included) in UNC condition that it will be many decades before the...

Am I missing something, theydidntmakeit??? PS. That's a sweet coin OP. Only thing that would have been better is if you found it in a roll o...
I picked this one up in a bag of 176 coins and not a single silver one (this one included).
I wonder if the coin "collectors" they are referring to are the bank tellers that turned them in.
I picked up some Eisenhowers from a bank this week and in the mix was this one. Not bad for only paying face value. It shows signs of...
Again, there is nothing like peer pressure. Keep it within the family, but figure out some tactful way for it to slip out the rest of the family....
Thanks, it sucks being honest as I've lost track how many times I've paid 50¢ for crap like this. It is tempting though to see if the casino's...
Maybe it should read, "The GEM Prooflike appearance, only seen at certain levels of inebriation"
Per the seller's own words "The light hairlines obverse, only seen at certain angles."
so the consensus is that this is an error, but there is no noticeable collector demand for it.
That's a nice collection, you just might have motivated me to put my error collection up. I have several halves that were struck through pieces...
I thought about that, but every dog tag I've seen contains information like name / shots / etc...
Separate names with a comma.
