Ah, thanks Cougar. I'll still keep it as I've been through probably 25-30 boxes and it's a first!

YES! Absolutely a cool find, and a keeper. As I mentioned in a previous post, I've found 2 Commemoratives in the past 3 weeks. No other way for coins like that ---- and your gold plated one --- to get into circulation unless someone is purposely dumping a relatives collection.

My last 2 boxes were a bust. No silver, but a 1994S was the only keeper.
There were at least 12 different marks from hunters in the 2 boxes. Webekin

Last two $100 buys were skunks.

But we bought a used car on Saturday, and the dealer paid us $2 for completing a 4 question survey. When it was done, I was handed four Kennedy halves (cupro-nickel). I asked if I could see the stash, and was told that the used car manager was a coin collector as well.

Asked him where he got his halves, and he stated at all the downtown banks. Asked if he saw much silver, and he said 5 or 6 for every purchase of $20-$30 face.

I'm going to have to check out these banks.

No, at least not for circulation. Those 1969 half dollars represent the last of the circulating silver is the US.

Arrived home last night, Picked up 8 boxes today 6 skunks, Ended up with 4-40%ers and 1-74D DDO, This is my 114th DDO and this is the first one I noticed the "E" in "WE" with doubling I can see. I pulled 2-66, 1-67, and 1-68. Not the best and better than O. Congrats on everyone's finds during my week away. Outstanding! Note taking a closer look the "W" shows strong doubling as well. I guess I just spent too much time looking at the "R" in "TRUST, I have checked several other DDO's and that strong doubling is not there.
