This is a first for me. Swung by a branch after dumping my clad and asked for halves. Teller says she has $1.50. She reaches in and grabs them, then holds one up which she says, "Oh, here is a real old one". I quickly grabbed it, thanked her and walked out. Now I am the new owner of a 1934 half with a nice big counterstamp of 1958 on the reverse. First walk-in walker. Thanks for looking...

I wonder what is the reason for the counterstamp. Good souvenir/gift for someone born in 1958. Nice score!
 
:icon_thumright: Nice find!! I got a half the other day with the word "SNOW" stamped on it. Wonder who and why someone is stamping halves?
 
Ive found several halves with 1980 stamped on them on the obverse, usually twice.

All of them have been clad, so I assume they are someones marked coins...
 
I got a Franklin once that looked as if someone hammered the face with a punch. Poor Ben looked like he had a bad case of the smallpox.
But it's still a 90%er.

Good find on the WLH!!
