Thanks Iamrussell
I have found a few modern ones from teller trays ( 1982 George Washington & 1986 Statue of Liberty ) these are my first old ones. Im pretty stoked about finding them.

Both common, but extremely awesome to find in a half dollar roll... Congratulations!
I was fortunate enough to score my first 90% silver commemorative back in January, it was also an 1893 Columbian exposition half dollar!

I found an 1893 Columbian Exposition this year as well. Cheers to the 2015 commemorative club! :occasion14: The commemorative club is a tough one to get into.

Both look like they're in nice shape as well, congrats!

Now I need to find the matching 1892. I wonder how many more, if any, of this persons commems got dumped.
They both seem to me to be somewhere between VF & XF

Very nice. I have found a few but never those two. They look like they are in good shape also.

Cool! I'm building a collection of them, but I've had to pay over face for all the ones I have! :)

Nice commems! The only ones I have found are the clad Stat of Libs (at least half a dozen). I'd love to find a silver one in any condition. Congrats!
