Enter me please for the three 1964 Kennedy Half Dollars lot. I like the 1964 Kennedy being the first year they were made, and the only circulated...
Counterfeit "error" coins, along with the others you mentioned, would be downright insane to see. I've seen a counterfeit Barber half and...
My favorite modern counterfeit I've seen is the rainbow toned, off center struck 1955 DDO Cent. o_O
I have been surprised at the types of coins I am seeing counterfeited. I have seen counterfeit 1964 Kennedy half dollars and Franklins halves....
Rejects from the cash dispenser: 1964-D silver Washington quarter, and a 1972-D Kennedy half dollar. Also found a 1976-D bicentennial quarter in...
I suppose it's possible that different areas and years saw circulation, and that the fad of keeping them wore off and they got spent for a while....
I have never received one in change since 1964. I worked at a fast food restaurant in the late 1960s. I never saw one.
We'd have to define what "active part of the economy" means I guess, because I was pulling Kennedy halves out of circulation from the ice cream...
I would remind those who think that cent should disappear because the coin no longer has a use in the economy that the mint has issued not for...
They hold a small premium to the right collector. I wouldn't say very valuable. I have a couple of Barber quarters like this. an 04O and an 04. I...

Maybe you know all of this, but this coin was part of set which the mint sold in 1964. It came in a tan envelope and looked like this. The issue...
I've been doing my part to circulate them! After I finished searching a box of Kennedy half dollars for silver, I've started spending the rest...
