    1916-S Obverse Mint Mark Key Date Half Dollar

    Hey all, I posted this on Todays Finds but thought I would also post it here since it was found in Illinois. My wife found this rare half on a recent P.A.T.H. Club (Peoria Area Treasure Hunters Club) group hunt. A lot of silver was found over the 3 day hunt including 4 half dollars. My silver amounted to a sterling treble clef ring and a 1944 nickel. Now she keeps telling me how her Whites DFX ran circles around my E-Trac. I may never live this down.

    Wow!

    Not too worry, you can fix it all by taking care of the battery charging responsibilities for the next couple hunts.....
