"Update Rotated die" Thursday Hunt "Photos Added"
Hi all!
Had an interesting day.
Picked up my 4 boxes of halves and only had the following.
2) 40%
1987d.
2008p
And a 2000 that appears to be a rotated die. I know, magician's coin right? I've found them before, only I can't see a seam on this one. Looked it over with the loupe several times. It even sounds like a solid coin. I will have to get a scale and weigh it.
Anyhoo, I went to a different bank to dump the leftovers and decided to check a few banks for halves. Only found clad at all of the banks I have been to in the past. Then I discovered a bank well hidden in this little village type area. The new thing in my area is building homes and condos and then adding shops, theaters, etc. Like a neighborhood with all the shops for convenience. Something told me to see if there were any banks. Didn't see any going in, but spotted a hidden one on the way out.
Went in and asked for halves and the teller asked how many I wanted. I said all she had. She told me she had $230 in the vault. now I was shocked to hear this due to the other banks in the area saying someone had gotten there just ahead of me. Told the teller I would take them all and she couldn't believe it. I explained I am a collector. She gave me her card and said she would hold all halves for me. The $230 gave up:
1961d Ben
1964(3)
1966(2)
1967(13)
1968d(3)
1969d(6)
Proofs:
1978s clad
1976s clad
1976s silver
2005p.
I love it when a plan comes together.
