Here's my 3rd half dollar roll hunting commemorative find:

a beautiful 1986 Liberty Half Proof, in great condition:

I couldn't find any thread within the commemorative topic, so I added my own. Hope it's an appropriate place for it.

Nice find.

Technically all CRH topics belong in the CRH forum. However, since you already posted this in the JFK thread, this one is fine since it deserves its own topic.

Nice find, I have one of those in the proof set with the silver dollar, have to wonder if it was a dumb kid that spent them for face value.

The only Commemorative finds I ever get from CRH are the Canadian 100 and 125 year cents and nickels.

Very nice!

I'm not a "roll hunter" so I've never had a similar experience, but I'm sure it's a thrill to come across something that is so unexpected.

I look forward to seeing your next find!

It may be a while before I find another.

JBuck, appreciate the indulgence.

I've had the flu this week, and my brain is still foggy. Can't remember the other 2 right now. I'll have to look in my book.

Thanks, everyone!

nice find!

When I still searched half dollar rolls, I also found one of these, but it was the UNC variety. I also found a WWII, a Stone Mountain in VF-ish and an AU Washington Carver.

NCLT is short for Non-circulating legal tender.

Commemorative coins by nature aren't meant to circulate but they are legal tender for face value.
