Hey all,
So today I went to the gas station to fill up as I was getting pretty low. Paid as normal and asked for a receipt just so I could see the drawer contents. ^_^ Spied a couple halves in the drawer so asked the teller if she had any halves. She looked at me a bit funny and reopened her drawer. Asked her what she had and she spouted off the dates without my asking.
I actually meant how many did she have but she told me dates instead of numbers of coins. First was a 1969 so I was like, nice! Rest of the dates were normal dates I'd hear but when looking at what she was holding, one of them looked very odd to me. It wasn't a kennedy half she was holding. Anyways, I asked if I could buy the 1969 and she was hesitant. She knew what she had. After heming and hawing a little, she said, oh alright and sold me it for face value. :P After I got that one, I asked if she would sell the odd one. She relented and sold me that one as well for face. So I got the two I wanted, and she said if I wanted the others, she'd sell those. So I took them as well even if they weren't anything special. Doesn't seem to be silver as far as I can tell. Copper edge and doesn't have that ting sound.
So in the end I got:
1 - 1969D Kennedy
1 - 1986S Something Half
If anyone has any info on the 1986S, let me know. I've no clue if it's something the mint put out or some oddball non currency commemorative thing. Any idea of value is also appreciated.
