Well, banks do have reserve requirements, so the halves aren't hurting them. Except possibly in storage costs.
Nice! Now I've got something else to look for in junk bins. Thanks for sharing!
These "commemorative" coins are pure schlock, in my opinion. They aren't raising funds for a cause, and they contain a deceptively low amount of...
Good pickups there! The bins in my neck of the woods tend to be 10/$1, but it's been ages since I found any silver. There are occasional low...
There's a thread on those here: http://www.cointalk.com/t149938/ Do you have any scans? I'd love to see yours.

Apparently, there will be "1 unit" coins available for sale on the http://www.futureworldcurrency.com/ website. After contacting their PR...
Very nice! Do you have any in higher resolution? Some of us like to fit a lot on our screen and have monitors on steroids...

That's the cost for miners to smelt Silver ore (40 cents per ounce). I'm not entirely sure on it either; obviously lower grade ore would be...
The line between a commemorative coin and a medal is a pretty narrow one. I think these qualify as pattern pieces or fantasy pieces. There are...
