What commemorative halves have you found?

[jamesandsons]

After 8 months of CRHing with no previous coin knowledge to speak of, I finally picked up a decade-old Red Book for $1 at a book sale this weekend, for reference purposes.

I'm blown away by all the commemorative half dollars that have been issued. Like, SO many different weird ones. Most of them silver.

The only commemorative I've found is the 1986 Statue of Liberty clad proof. I'm pretty sure I've seen people report finding the Stone Mountain and Columbian Exposition ones since I've been on the forums. Lots of the other ones have much lower mintages; usually around 50,000 or so.

What else have you folks found? Do you have pictures?

Never found a commem through CRH. Though I do mostly CWRs so maybe the high-volume guys who do boxes/bags might have a different story...

 

[Styfflin]

Zero for me so far!

1 Statue of Liberty commemorative

 

[TheMastermind]

I've found two silver commemoratives so far: Booker T. and Columbian Exposition.

EDIT: I've found three. Booker T., Columbian Exposition, and the Bicentennial.

For some reason, I always forget that the Bicentennial coins were commemoratives.

The commemorative halves I have I bought.

I've got a 1925 Stone Mountain half, a 1946 Booker T. half, and a 1952 Booker T./George Washington Carver half, and a 1986-S Ellis Island half (for FV from a friend on here).

I've found 2 statue of libertys (both within the last week), one mount rushmore, and one george washington (silva). I like finding them. I'm sure I've missed a couple clad commemoratives because I only sound and edge check.

 

[BRChiver]

Good topic; I'll have to check the safe in the am. I have a couple I've found. Mostly clad but a couple AG.
HH!

Just one goose egg after another over here...

 

[Rustystcloud]

Up until last week I wouldn't be able to claim any commemoratives but got lucky and found two in one week. 1991 Mount Rushmore and 86' liberty. I think I came across a mini collection dump.

 

[freqflyer4u]

Just the other day pulled 2 52 Booker T/George W comms outta one roll. Also had a 40% & a 90% kennedy half. decent roll id say ;-) HH
