Apparently most of us save these. I have. I still remember finding an 81S quarter and a 76S silver quarter in change 20 years ago (still have them, too).
Anyhow, the question is why. I mean, I am sitting here looking at a 2001S clad proof half that has scratches on the front and the reverse rims look like someone whacked 'em with a hammer at 8 and 9 o'clock. It is also slightly concave. If this weren't a *former* proof coin, it would be back at the bank with the other junk halves. This one is probably worse than most though... others just have circulation wear.
Do circulated proof coins have any real value?
And does anyone buy them for more than face value?
