One Keeper that is better than the rest

My bank forgot to order my boxes, so I picked up all the loosies they had. I got my 2nd 1976 S 40%er this year. The can keep my box, I will take that above a few 40%ers any day. HH

You dont normally ask for loose while you are there?!?!?!? lol

How much did you search, and what was the total besides the bicentennial?

I too found my 2nd(only and for the year) 1976 silver half dollar last week, my first was a proof, but this one was not a proof, although easily AU condition.

HH!

Was it the proof or BU set 40%er?

Great find either way!

The proof would be shiny; the B.U. set would look like a circulation coin.

Both are BU, not proofs
