Today's two boxes of halves yielded 2 commemorative halves. These are the first commemorative that I have pulled in about two years. 1 coin was found in each box.

Keep on Searching

If I could find commem's like I find Panamanian Half Balboa's I'd be a happy camper. Those pieces you show would have a very special place in the collection for sure.
