Happens to all of us. I was looking at an antique shop at a bulk bag of mixed date Walkers. They were in nice shape with S and D mint coins...
Dansco. I buy from Vernon Coin Center since they are reasonable and located in Connecticut. They do have an e-bay store. But I drive over there...
The mintage of a little under two and a half million. But it isn't the lowest mintage for the Franklin half. Can you guess what year had the...

My new interest is collecting Barber half dollars. I have completed a Walker, Franklin and Kennedy collection. Started duplicate sets of each...
