[QUOTE="TylerH, post: 3151028, member: 97181"]Hi All I hate to ask this question - but here is the context. New collector here - Started by recently inheriting my grandma's silver change collection - and by collection I just mean she -starting in the 70s - just threw silver change she got into a jug for safe keeping. By the time I got it it was a few hundred coins - Mostly dimes and halves. There were a few hundred Kennedy halves from 64 on - but from 1964 specifically there were probably 60, and from 65-70 probably another 30-40 They were all circulated - except when looking through these two jumped out - they like, GLOWED, in comparison to the rest. So wondering if they were taken maybe from a proof set, or maybe just happened to be thrown into the jug before they were too circulated - I don't know... There was some strange stuff in the collection too like 1850s large cents, etc... So who knows. Just curious since these stood out so much. Thanks![/QUOTE]
