Quote: When will we start doing one year per day? Probably only if we start getting regular multiple posts for a year, but I am not sure that it will ever happen. Circulation and roll finds are not going to be as common as purchases for every year . I have an idea. If anyone has a year they are waiting to show, speak up when it gets close and we can pause make sure we do not advance the thread too fast. For example, ace_ftw has a 1973. We should not post a 1972 until Ace has a chance to post the 1973.

One of my most precious CRH finds, and one of the reasons I collect coins today, growing up in the 70's and 80's I was a child who was aware of this coin, but alas it took a few decades to finally own one.

Jbuck - precisely why I stopped at 1973. I knew ace had a specimen on deck. That and I didn't have a 1973S impaired proof.  Ace - good coin to post for the date. Nice roll find!

Steele - thank you. I've been lucky finding impaired proofs. Especially from the 60s and 70s.

Finn, look for the dots, the Large bust has them right up to the rim, also the hair above the tiara is noticeably less intricate. There were not many of these minted, so good luck.

I have one for this date as well. My first (and so far only) proof half find. It's fairly beat up.
