If you look behind the eye at the edge of the hairline, you can also see the clash of the area between the eagle's wing and leg. I have examples...

I've seen a bunch of these counter stamped halves while roll searching. There are varieties out there other than 1960-1980 and I've seen gold and...
I suspected it was just MD, so thanks to everyone for confirming that. The clash marks are certainly there, but it was tough to get the lighting...
What about the raised clash marks under the ear and jawline? These marks look very similar to a talon-head on an Ike.
So you openly admit that you'd take advantage of a listing error or grossly underpay an uninformed seller? Seems a bit hypocritical... Perhaps...
Hey y'all I don't post much, but I frequently read through the threads to gain knowledge as I am still fairly new to coin collecting as a serious...
I search half dollars and also keep anything I think can sell for more than face either immediately or at some point in the future. Really the...

Haha you know that has crossed my mind! It's always the same lady working when it's broken, so maybe you're on to something. Actually, I...
The errors at the coin counter don't hurt the bank, since they don't pay out until you bring the ticket to the counter. It only hurts the...
It seems like the Penny Arcades at the TD Banks around here are broken down almost every weekend when I go in to dump. Now I'm stuck with halves...
I search 'em anyway since I've found proofs and NIFC's including a 1987 in marked rolls before. I got a box yesterday from the bank that was...
I've actually received full boxes of halves that had been searched and returned, then resealed by the bank and sent out again. It's an awful...
I went the other way and just gave up buying from banks that use Garda, as they also pick up the coins I dump at TD. Currently my buy banks both...
