<p>[QUOTE="MommaHenn, post: 3573371, member: 103509"]There is a local shop I frequent on a weekly basis and last week, I asked them if they wouldn’t mind keeping an eye out for halves, dollars, etc. They agreed but also informed me that the manager also was a collector. The manager then came around the corner, joined my conversation and proceeded to tell me that just recently a customer came in, made a purchase and used a 1942 half-dollar...so he snagged it up as it was “interesting looking”. The manager said he would bring it in for me to see...and I saw it today! So jealous. </p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, the manager did clean it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> and then threw it in his kids’ piggy bank.

[QUOTE="MommaHenn, post: 3573371, member: 103509"]There is a local shop I frequent on a weekly basis and last week, I asked them if they wouldn’t mind keeping an eye out for halves, dollars, etc. They agreed but also informed me that the manager also was a collector. The manager then came around the corner, joined my conversation and proceeded to tell me that just recently a customer came in, made a purchase and used a 1942 half-dollar...so he snagged it up as it was “interesting looking”. The manager said he would bring it in for me to see...and I saw it today! So jealous. Unfortunately, the manager did clean it :( and then threw it in his kids’ piggy bank. OMG! As of today, I did put it in a 2x2 for him. Also told him to NEVER clean coins. Even though not my coin, it was cool to hold. Just thought I would share. Thanks!
