Per BuffaloBoy's request here http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/c...61-30-pieces-silver-good-friday-bad-luck.html
Here are shots of the 1982 no "FG" half I found today. I've heard these have to have absolutely no trace of the FG showing. I see what looks like a couple of bumps attached to the bottom of the eagle's leg, but not in the correct position for the FG. On the other hand, until I compared it to a new half, I didn't see just how worn the coin really was. What's your thoughts?
Here's the coin with no magnification. As you can see, it's a 1982 P.
Here's your standard 10x magnification:
Here's 30x lighted magnification:
And 60x magnification. Lighted (not very legible):
60x with black light:
and 60x with no light:
I've found about half a dozen other 82P no "FG"s in about the same condition. I'd love to hear some feedback on this. Do you think it qualifies as a real no "FG"? Any value to it?
Thanks!

I agree, some call us clad lovers, but sometimes clad can be worth way more than silver! Is it possible for you to share with us a photo of the 1982 "no FG" Half dollar?
