...favorite coin EVER found in the wild from CRH???

Mine (so far) is the 1932-D that filled the final hole in my Washington Quarter set!

I have a few. My FAVORITE has to be the 1968-S proof that I found when I first started. It was my first silver half AND my first proof coin in the wild. I also like my 1913-P (it was dateless) buffalo nickel, which is my oldest coin find to date. I also like the 1964 Kennedy that I found last week. I've been searching half boxes since May and it was the first 90%er half I have found. I also like all the proofs I've found too.

I bet that was pretty awesome finding that 68-s silver proof!!! I just recently found a silver proof dime...thought it was plated but the weight told me otherwise!!

Thanks for sharing!!

Happy holidays!

I have found 2 proof dimes, neither silver though. That's on my list of goals though! I remember you posting about it (I think). What year was it and have you found any other proof dimes (clad or silver)? Mine were 1982-S and 2004-S.
 
Hey Coin Town
Glad to see you're still on the prowl.
My Favorite find is probably... my most recent. A 1900 V-Nickel in bad shape. But I love it:D

You did recently see a post about it thanks for remembering! It was a 1999 silver proof!

I have found a few nickel proofs and quite a few half dollar proofs. It's cool finding something that should not be found in circulation!

I haven't been doing this too long, but I'd have to go with my first 90% half - a 1945 Walker.

Those are some killer coins Weasel!!! AWESOME!
 
Hard enough to narrow down to three!
1900 Canadian
1970 D/S
1970 D sticks in my mind, as it was the only half at the bank inside Walmart when I began roll hunting again.

Hmm...
#1 is my MS64 RD 1999 WAM.
#2 is probably my Uncirculated 1935 Walker.
#3 is my 1946 DDR WLH.
 
1878 indian head penny found in canada(almost...)
 
1917 Mercury dime. It's my oldest CRH find and I just plain like the design of those coins.
 
My 1936-D quarter (semi-key):

My very best still after all these years was a 1917-D Obverse MM in XF. When it rolled out, I couldn't believe the condition. She's a dirty lady, and others couldn't understand my excitement over another dirty lady.
 
Too many to count, but my Double Headed '64 brought ME lots of luck. HH Mark
 
This one without doubt. Happy Holidays everyone.
