bonham3 Valued Member United States 346 Posts	Posted 11/15/2007 6:14 pm Hi I have just started searching these halfs and is it normal for circulated bank roll kennedys that are otherwise in pretty good detail, to have no reeding at all on the edges ? (smooth) these are mid to late 90's halves. Thank's Report this Post to the Staff

Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 11/15/2007 7:45 pm I think I posted the same thing not too long ago. I recently picked up several from two local banks, and found about 1/4th of them had no reeding. Very unusual! The slot machine possibility is all I can think of. Report this Post to the Staff
bonham3 Valued Member United States 346 Posts	Posted 11/15/2007 11:56 pm Thank's Kind of makes sense. living in mass. I go to foxwoods and mohegan sun casinos in conn. and I know that not too recently they did away with coins for slots so maybe these late 90's were used at the time. I guess the rim edges would wear faster than the devices if used that way. Report this Post to the Staff
