[QUOTE="berto, post: 2577480, member: 68428"]Bman, I also don't like it when hunters mark halves. But, I think it's interesting to see the marks that are handwritten dates on halves. That said it's annoying when 5 coins in each roll are marked with the same mark. I bet I see an average of 10 different marks in each box, and this doesn't count marks on the side of the coins, which are almost as numerous. A few years ago I found one coin on which someone had drawn a headdress on JFK. The headdress was even multicolored. I threw it back, but am now considering keeping the more creative marked coins. I've already kept a few of the coins marked by metal punches...the punches are typically single numbers or letters. Obviously, coins marked with metal punches have no numismatic value and never will, which is sad.[/QUOTE]
