Tonight's Amazing bag of halves.... (amazing for me anyways)! pic added
I was still feeling a bit pessimistic after ordering a bag from the same bank yesterday and getting skunked on it. Today was different though, Right away I could see silvers and that is always exciting. It wasnt until my second silver that I really knew it was a special bag..... In only 6 weeks of CRH'ing, and consistently hearing how difficult it is to find a 1970 Kennedy, you can imagine my excitement when I pulled a great looking 1970 out of the bag... My mom was there and the look on her face to see her 28 year old son acting like a 5 yr. old on christmas was almost as good as the find itself! Well, not quite. First find was a 64 Ken by the way... So it was a great start. Halfway through, and the cameo proofs started showing up. Up until now, I have found one 2005 cameo frost proof in all of the coins I have hunted. Today, I ended up with 5 cameo proofs out of this one bag, 6 actually but the frost is pretty much unrecognizable on one, I think it has been in circulation for a while, it has the S mint mark though. I also found an interesting foreign coin, I have no idea what it is. When said and done, I ended up with 3-90%'ers... and 13-40%'ers.... and six cameo proofs. It was alot of fun... Can anyone give me an idea as to how hard it is to find one of these 1970 d Kens? I only know it is rare from the posts i have read here, How much are they worth? This one is in what I would call really good condition. Looks pretty much uncirculated. Thanks.
