Hello everyone, I don't usually post in this forum, but thought I would tonight. I have been coin roll hunting for 25 years, and have looked thru hundreds of thousands of half dollars ( yes I keep records for fun ). About 5 years ago, my daughter was enjoying in the hobby with me, and she grabbed a roll that had our first 1970 D Kennedy in it. Well, I was at the bank today and my contact teller said she had a roll for me and I bought it. Once home, it contained 4 - 40 % Kennedys with one of them being our 2nd 1970 D Kennedy ! I could not believe it when I saw it. All these years searching, and that is the first one that I actually found. It isn't the prettiest coin, ( the bottom row - on the right ) but its a tougher Kennedy and I'm happy with it.

Congrats! I scored my '70 D early on in my CRH career, then later, the 70 S. Good luck to you -

I started searching half dollar boxes in December, 2010. I too, keep a list of what I find. Checking my list, I've found 5 1970-D's. I leave in about an hour to start my bank run. Lets see what is "discovered" this week.

Excellent! I've yet to find a 1970-D but I am still hopeful.

I'm just the opposite, I've found 2 70D's but no 70S yet. I'm still searching for it.
