HALF COIN ROLL RESULTS FOR 11/15/06

[sparkymaster]

MY FIRST BOX WAS A SKUNK BUT THE SECOND OFFERED ME THREE COINS. THIS ISN'T THE BEST I'VE DONE YET BUT IT WASN'T A TOTAL LOSS EITHER. (BLUE AND WHITE WRAPPERS) IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME WITH WHAT THESE GOLD COLORED COINS ARE AND WHAT THEY MIGHT BE WORTH I'D APPRECIATE IT. THERE ARE TWO HALFS THAT APPEAR TO BE GOLD PLATED. THE ONE BICENTENIAL HAS THE DATES 1960 AND 1985 STAMPED INTO IT. I THINK IT WAS SOME KIND OF RETIREMENT GIFT OR SOMETHING. THE OTHER ONE IS A 1974, NEITHER HAVE MINTMARKS. THE THIRD COIN IS A 1983 S PROOF IN WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER GREAT CONDITION. THANNKS! HH-

The gold ones are fairly common. The concensus is that they are novelty items of some kind.

How can you tell that it is a proof?
