I keep all S mintmarks, but Bicentennial halves are nothing special. I get rid of them as soon as i sort through them. :icon_scratch:

the 1976 and 1976D has a combined mintage of about 521 million, so they are NOT worth anything over face value...lol

Someone in my MD club found one in the ground last month. There used to be one less out there til he ignorantly returned it to circulation.

OH I GET IT>>>>To thin out the circulation. Alright, I found a source that will pay as much as double, HMMM ???? that would be one dollar, thats would make it 100% profit ? OK so I'll keep as many as I can. Thanks for the tips !!!
