"LOMBARDO" half dollar ***with picture***

Hi all, I remember a while back people finding half dollars with "LOMBARDO" written on them. Anyone have any more info on this coin? I have done 25 boxes of half dollars ever(started in January), and this is the first "LOMBARDO" marked coin I have come across. Of course, i thought I have seen every mark out there, but I guess not! My boxes are usually loaded with marked coins. Whoever lombardo is, they took their time to mark up a clad half dollar.

Scanned in 150 dpi because it's not a quality coin, I usually scan in 600 dpi though. Has anyone else gotten these recantly?

I've gotten so many of these it's not even funny. I generally get a few of them in each batch of boxes I get.

I actually got a Lombardo ender last week.

db,

Have you ever considered trying to "triangulate" Lombardo?
With the help of 2 other guys, you could do it !!

But then when you caught him, what would you do with him?
(Probably just throw him back).

Keep on Rollin' !!

One of the interesting aspects of this hobby is what people find. Rich Hartford(R.I.P.) found a half with a pink sticker on it, advertising of some sort for a bar. A month or two later, Apush finds one in her boxes of half dollars. Coincidence you say, they live probably close to 2,000 miles apart and are in different time zones. One month later, I get two in one box, I live between the two of them, roughly 1,000 miles from each.

Makes you kinda go :icon_scratch:

FreedomUIC i take it you dont really live out in ALASKA?

:laughing7:

Saw a guy post about an "Aunt Chilada's Easy Street Cafe" sticker which is located in Hilton Head, SC. I get them from time to time but this dude was in Montana. Long way for that half to travel.
