History of a Half Dollar :secret: AdamL, should Clembo's methology for coin's restoration not work, you may want to consider a proper eulogy with last rites. The photos I have seen of this coin it would appear it has lived a very long and fruitful life with a disastrous end. :hatch: :computer: It was first Violently Struck at birth (this must be a thing of passage, also done to some forms of intelligent life), Kiss :hug:Used, :vanish: Then kept in the dark for most of it's time in this form :rolling: Tortured then given away, useless with a value less than melt silver.
