I personally don't like the defacing of any coin, but when did you start caring? Tim are you becoming a clad lover? :laughing7:

Tim loves the clad halfs. He is trying to protect them. He is spreading the word too.

Sea turtle's are worse than snapping turtles, if it bites you, you are a goner. Don't be acting like a clad lover, eminem, only trades one thing for clad, and that's lead.

I stoped marking weeks ago. When the banks told me i had to. Or i would still be painting. But to grind a grove in a coin thats not right. I will save a few and when i post my 25 to 30 pics of my yearly finds. I found a 2 headed 1964 last week pretty cool.

What is a 2 headed 64?
Someone took 2 1964 and cut them in half just like the hollow ones and used both heads to make one coin thats heads both sides.

Fellas...

Coins that may be withholding information vital to national security can be made to talk. There are ways...

I have been getting a lot of halves with a 1/3 in. diameter hole drilled in the middle. It makes the coins underweight!

I am waiting for a holed silver coin, so I can key chain it.

I had a clad keychain, but I'm no clad lover, so I ditched it.

I found a 1967 with a hole in the middle a couple weeks ago.

I found a Ben Franklin last week painted light blue, I guess someone wasn't paying attention, or its from a restaurant 50 years ago. There was a place we went to in NY when I was a kid called "The Loose Caboose" or something like that and the owner would give out halves with nail polish on 1 side as some sort of tracker i guess?

But grinding....ya that is really stupid.

I've got a holed 50% silver British halfcrown for my keychain. Didn't find it, but bought it in a lot of foreign silver.
