My halve dollar boxes were much more productive at one time. This is from a box we searched in January of 2009. My wife actually gets credit for this one. She picked the better end of the box and pulled this beauty.   |

yeah, I don't mean to be scientifically.
@Heavy-metal: If you found a 1951 or 1952 Franklin proof, kudos to you!

Seems our fears on 1922 were premature. But it would have been super cool for a 1922 Plain or 1922D LWC. I'm holding off on 1920 until tomorrow to give a final chance for one of our Fellow Enthousiasts to post on 1921...or 1922 I suppose. Seems a two year jump back would be stretching a stretched guideline a little too far. |

I'm quite surprised to see a 1919 Canadian coin posted here since I planned to post mine! This was my first coin that I ever put in my collection as a kid when my mom found it in her purse. Unfortunately it's considered cleaned since I tried to make it look nicer (it was tarnished black) with ketchup before I knew any better!   EDIT: minor error correction. Edited by Derek

@Derek, mine is a 50 cents actually. I found it in a customer wrapped US half dollar roll in Sept 9th, 2010. It is slightly smaller than a US half dollar.

I should post these before it's too late. This one was pickled- it's hard to see in the picture, but it's definitely a 1919-D. I found a 1919 plain as well, but I can't find pictures.  One of the handful of wheats I've found.  |

@ace_ftw: We did 1921 on previous page. But 1922 was revisited later so it seems that we skipped 1922.
