What was your SINGLE best coin found this year??

[LeoTrench-MAINE]

Since the beginnig of August -It's been a blisful year~~~~ish.

I've recaptured the love of a passionate, time-wasting hobbie
that I adored as a child {now with more finacial prowess though}

Grabbing some silver is nice...

But finding a few friends that share a simple hobbie...

Who could ask for anything more.


HH and Best Luck In The New Year!!!!!!

For me it would be a 1949 AU Ben with full lines on bell reverse.

I graded it AU58 myself. (not a pro and used PCGS photograde)

 

[FIRE310]

No extreme value in my favorite finds, but I enjoyed my 1907 barber half and 1902 barber dime I found this year.

 

[BuffaloBoy]

I'd say a double clipped nickel, single clipped penny, or perhaps an AU ben franklin 1962d

 

[That Canadian Guy]

Most of the coins I have found have been fairly modest. I have however come across a choice uncirculated (MS63) Canadian $1 bill with a serial number of LW0000047. This and many other rarities of the $1 bill were saved for me buy some friendly tellers at the bank but I would say that was the best one of the lot. I believe it is worth $80-$100 according to the books. All the $1 bills I got that day in total could probably net me over $400 if the right person bought them all. As to my best coin, I would have to look it up.

For me, this is an easy one:

My first Walking Lib, a 1944, very worn, but still stunningly beautiful in my eyes.

 

[SeaninNH]

I can't pick just one.

These are my favorite coin finds this year.

What is it with the Nickel? 1984? Is that an die variety or error?

My best one is 1900-S Half in EF condition.. that's probably my best CRH single coin find ever

 

[conleytheking]

Did you find the seated quarter in a roll? Or detecting?

 

[santafeboy]

Ive got two of them 1st my 1866 S Seated Liberty Half found in a tellers tray. 2nd 1933 S Walking Liberty half found in the same roll as a well worn 1853 Seated Liberty

 

[conleytheking]

I've never found a seated. A guy can dream.

 

[Mzjavert]

Well since I just started CRH two nights ago...'37 Wheat.

I also scored a '64 quarter in a Coinstar reject bin earlier this month.

Metal detecting...all clad.

 

[Yagershots]

Would this Count..... Found while dumping!

 

[CPL]

It doesn't compare to the Seated, but my best find of 2011 has to be the 1912d Barber half I found in about $100 from the coin counter.

 

[SeaninNH]

Did you find the seated quarter in a roll? Or detecting?

The seated was found detecting. They were tearking down a tot lot and had all the wood chips and 2' of ground removed. I detected the pile and found it.

The rest were found CRHing.
