I have found a total of three of them. Always a pleasant surprise to my mind.

I find at least one a month. I give them to the tellers—they seem to really like 'em.

Hey Smitty, i've come across quite a few over the years as well, 2 noteable finds were a 2-headed bicentennial half dollar and a 2-headed 1996 half dollar, the only way i found them was because they made a thud sound rather than a clink sound, I usually open them and toss them into a jar for anything unusual, i just can't put a fake/foreign coin into circulation.
nice find,
hh

I get about 1 every 4 boxes or so, have a couple rolls of them. Haven't seen an Obama half dollar lately, those always go down the storm drain when I do get them.
