I got my first (and only) 1970-D from a bank teller's roll, it's quite a nice surprise to see! As for the '87 P&D halves, I guess I just must be...
Are you buying them or finding them in circulation? Because since they both came from the same place (1987 mint sets) I have almost always found...
Although the patent date puts it within gold usage, actually the $20 in $1 refers to dollar coins, i.e. 20 Ikes (or Peace or Morgans) in a roll.
Yeah, they are pretty neat. When I first got them from a bank on rolls of halves, I had visions of walkers, barbers, etc. especially since they...
Took a few days longer than I thought, but here are the images. The first is of the wrapper itself, the second is with halves inside it, which...
I have some of these wrappers at home, I'll post a photo of them later. Never heard them called this before, but basically, they come not in a...
Yes, you are correct that the 1997 (P) is the one currently known to have the doubled ear variety- nice example, by the way!
The thing to remember is that the surface of a coin (metal) is not a very hospitable place for life and that most germs die pretty quickly when...
I don't really see any doubling; are you refering to the spot below the earlobe? There's no such variety listed either with CONECA or at...

The ear is a little small to see- could you take a more close-up image? Maybe through a magnifier?
If you know that conversion you're already off to a good start. Especially when it comes to avoiding speeding tickets while travelling in Canada;)
Sorry to offend- I had assumed you'd seen his post since it was over a half an hour before your response. In truth, I'm a bit testy on the...
GDJMSP said it is 61 mm, for the metricly impaired that's 6.1 cm * (1 inch / 2.54 cm) = 2.4 inches (diameter, I'm assuming)
Way to go! Based on the photos, I assume you found it in circulation (as opposed to an uncirculated roll)?
Yeah, I have a pile of relatively beat up 2002-2006 halves from roll searching but somehow I just can't part with them.
Thanks! On the proofs, I decided to just make the album for Cu-Ni proofs and leave the silver ones separate. I have actually found two of the 40%...
Right there with you- and due to one fortunate find, I only have 4 holes left in my 1971-S through 2007-S collection, see images below. FWIW,...
