When looking for junk silver I always prefer older and rarer. So, I'll pick a Walking Lib half over a Franklin or a Mercury dime rather than a Roosie. If something older comes along that's not too beat up, at a bullion-related price, I'm usually interested. I'm pleased to add this piece to the pile. It's only an AG but is reasonably unmolested. I like it!

Nice. I agree Jaobler. When I buy "junk" I only buy Walking Liberty's and Mercs.

Nice coin! But I would put it in one of my holders and keep it. But that's just me. I have 8 Washington quarters all junk silver. Never selling them though. They were a gift from my uncle.
