[QUOTE="BladeRunner2019, post: 1876901, member: 67763"]Hello all. As I mentioned in my introduction post, I recently purchased 73 half dollars of various types. I didn't buy them for any collector value and only paid a little above spot price. Some of them seem to be in decent condition (mostly the Walking Liberties) so I thought I would check with those with more experience (you guys!) to see if any might be in good enough condition to bring more than melt value. This is what I bought: 3 Kennedys 24 Franklins 36 Walking Liberties 10 Barbers. Here are the Barbers. On average, they are in the poorest condition of the coins I got. To my untrained eye, I wouldn't think any are worth more than melt. Some of these have plastic over them so its hard to tell if the mark or scratch is on the coin or plastic. Thanks in advance for your input. Ps – If this isn't the proper place for this type of post please let me know. Thanks.
