I obviously have broken the habit of monthly updates, but I have been carrying my pocket pieces most of the time (though not quite as reliably as some of you). Here's the progress on the 2010-D half, with some different shots to show the wear on the high points. Thank you for the update.  |

Thanks for the update, Mont! I haven't done one since March, but I will wait a bit more. What I really want to do is add another piece. Since mine didn't start as BU, that's what I want to add. I just have to decide on what coin to use. I want silver so it's fair play with the Morgan.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Actually I dropped my Morgan on my concrete garage floor earlier today. OOOH what a sound it made...I thought it dinged it for sure. When I went to look at it I remembered it had been a while since I updated my photos. The Kennedy is silver too...well 40% anyways. If you don't want a large heavy coin like a Morgan or Peace dollar, a Franklin or Kennedy half dollar is a great choice imo. Edited by MontCollector

I like the way that 67 Kennedy is looking. I think that yellow gunk helped it form that nice cameo it has going on. Makes me want to kick out my 64 and throw in a 40%er instead.

Nice! Really like how the ASE and the Ellis Island are looking. That 1967 medal, is that overstruck on a Morgan? I will probably do pictures in mid-September, when I will have had my 1921 Morgan in the pocket, almost without fail, for a year. Edited by hcmusicguy

About 6 weeks ago I added another Morgan to my pocket. It has changed a little since then. This is what it looked like when I got it.  What it looks like today after 6 weeks in my pocket.  Starting to get a nice CircCam look and really making it's way towards the P01 grade I am shooting for. Edited by MontCollector

Got a dirty pocket, Mont?  I will wait till late September for an update because that will be a year and a half in the pocket every day. I still want to add another piece but cannot decide what it should be. I'm drawn to large dollars, but that's a bit of hardware in the pocket sometimes (depending on attire). In the end, I think it has to be another large dollar so I don't get it confused in some odd case with regular change in the same pocket. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Got a dirty pocket, Mont? I do live in the mountains of Montana. We wear blue jeans and t-shirts to work and yes sometimes they get a little dirty. Especially in the summer when all the outside chores and repairs have to be finished before winter hits again. Gathering firewood is a big part of that. We get enough for ourselves and usually fill up the elderly neighbors shed for them too. I also think that the more worn they are the faster they pick up this look. The other coins in my pocket still look like they do in my photos above. Edited by MontCollector

I only switched to shorts about three weeks ago. Appreciate those mountains. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
