Stamped '71 half

Sorry, I couldn't get a better picture.. It's a 1971 half but it's super shiny(goldish color) with 1960 stamped above in god and 1985 stamped above we trust. I don't see a mint mark. What am I looking at here?

I have found over 50 of those things. I actually hate 'em! They have an edge that looks silver because of the plating. Then you pull them from the roll, with your hopes up, and you see that it's basically a defaced, novelty coin. Dump it.

Sell them to people on Ebay for .99 cents so we stop finding them in CRH =P
