<p>[QUOTE="heuvy31, post: 1668603, member: 42173"]I definitely way over thought the clues with my earlier guesses. Then at some point (can't remember which page now) the OP mentioned the coin was not a half dollar or quarter and OP stated as well the coin was a seated liberty. The OP also mentioned the answer was one of the coins from the pics. By looking at the pics I knew if it was a dime it would have to be an S and 1960 or later because of the wreath design. With the half dime I knew by the wreath design it had to be a pre 1960 coin and since no mint mark was present it had to be P. Since there had been so many guesses at this point I went back to page 1 and wrote down all of the dime and half dime guesses that fit that description. I found all of the possible dimes had already been guessed so I started guessing the remaining half dimes until they were all gone. Luckily one of them ended up being right. Hope that description is helpful. Thanks again to bkozak33 for the contest.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
