BEAUTY IS IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER – And I’ve always had very low standards. Half-Hound is easy to please.

I went through a box of halves this evening – of course I didn’t find much (1965, 1967 & 1968). I did find a 1980 D that had been milled on one side. And I am including in this photograph a sample of the very beautiful bicentennial coins I found. I know they’re only clad, but they’re toned and appear completely uncirculated. I will keep these.

Last week I found a double-sided Kennedy half. It had two reverse sides. I doubt if it is a genuine error coin – but it is an interesting piece. Has anyone else every found these?

Your double sided half is a "magicians coin" made by a novelty company. Your 1980D milled coin is one half of those magician coins.
