Hello everyone,

I am new to coin roll hunting, only starting in February of 2013 but have had some pretty good success. I mostly do half dollars but have had success with nickels as well. I wanted to share some of my recent great finds, especially a rare 1925 Commemorative Silver Half Dollar (Lexington-Concord Patriot Half) only around 100,000 minted.

Please check out my log, "2013, My log and more" for more pictures and statistics. Here are a few of my gems.

Enjoy and happy hunting.

That Commemorative might end up being the find of your CRH career! If it's not, you might end up in the CRHing Hall of Fame. :occasion14: Crazy good find! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks everyone. It has been a fun hobby to learn. It just goes to show that there is still silver and cool finds out there.

Happy hunting.

Nice commemorative! I have not seen one of those posted here before. Post it in the Ender thread too (someone who has the link can bump it).

Congrats! That would be the most meaningful commemorative IMHO. The acts in Lexington-Concord separated us from all the other colonized people, such as Indians, Aussies, Canadians, etc.

A Lexington ender? Sick! Lancaster isn't far from my old turf either.
