<p>[QUOTE="silverbull, post: 1669372, member: 46352"]Hey thanks man! Glad to be here! It does sound like a normal 40% half when flipped, and the edge is also intact with what looks to be silver clad. However, the thickness of the coin itself is definitely "thinner" then the other 68's in my collection. </p><p>The more I look at this coin, the more perplexed I get. I don't want to call it a fake just yet, but its certainly not looking good with all these striking differences in the coin. I sure am glad I brought this to this forums attention, I have definitely not noticed all these differences when looking at it before.</p><p><br /></p><p>I actually scored this from a gas station. I leave $5 bucks at a couple gas stations in my area, and they set all the half's and IKE dollars aside for me with the money. I end up paying face value for silver coins almost once a month. You would be surprised how well this works, especially in certain "low income" areas.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
