Found 2 odd halves tonight. A "gold-plated" 1979 and a 1976-S that doesn't look or sound like 40% silver. 1) it doesn't really *look* like gold...
Please take a guess on how this 1972—D "no FG" will grade. Thanks. [IMG] [IMG]
The big ones are 21mm in diameter and very light, so aluminum? Almost 2mm in width and these have ridges along the outer edge. The smaller one...
Thanks for the links. I forgot to look on teletrade. Do you all think that my coin is at least an AU53? Is it okay to post a "guess the grade"...

Very cool. Thank you! It is one thing to show a foreign coin to kids. It is entirely different to be able to give them some of the history! They...
