Marked Halfs Here

Thought i would make a post were if people mark there halfs they can post a pic. If you find a marked half you can pm the person and let them know where you found it or post the state.I dont mark my halfs but i fig I would start a thread for those who do.
Good luck HH.

Marking halves is bad. Mmm-kay?

I don't mark any coin. I rather leave it a mystery for others. Nothing is worse than getting a box and it is full of marked coins, almost ruins the excitement. Lately though, I have seen a new mark in my area and there have been LOTS of them. Anyone have any info??

I haven't seen the "JJ" yet, but the red slash mark has been pretty common in the rolls of halves I pick up from my bank.

Everyone has a diferent take on the marked halves thing, I personally like seeing different marks in my boxes, it tells me that they are being processed and the coin flow is being moved around. I'm not saying that I like marking coins. When I have a box with alot of different marked coins in it that means the dumps have really been broken up, alot of 1 single mark in your boxes says they aren't being processed with a bunch of other coins.

I actually don't mind seeing the marks for the same reason. Seeing several different ones, like you said, means you're at least not picking up someone's dumps. The only issue I take with it is when a good looking coin gets a big obvious mark. Since I've been filling out the Whitman folders, it breaks my heart to see a beautiful coin with a big sharpie mark on it. I haven't bothered to figure out how to safely clean either (which seem's like a flat out no-no in a lot of situations) so the marked ones just get tossed back most of the time in hopes I will soon find the same condition, year and mint unmarked.
