Don't know what to think about this two proofs two coin rolls in a row. This one looks a little more circulated .

I'd have to say that's highly unlikely. You must have stumbled onto someone's dumped collection of some sort.

No matter how, very nice catches!

I noticed on the first one and also on this, the bluish color especially on the reverse. Is that just the pic or on the coins?

A proof coin is not a variety, so I moved your thread.
Rest in Peace

That's actually the color spruette I use a white light so it doesn't change the color . Thanks fuzzy317 I guess the only error was someone putting it into circulation. Crazybo only me you and Clint Eastwood will appreciate that one lol!

Potbellypub, I bet there are more "Rawhide" fans on here than just the three of us.

Nice find indeed ... suggest you learn how to adjust your camera white balance as the coin can not be in hand the color shown in your photos.

Great find Potbellypub! Love the toning too.

I don't much roll search myself. The employees at the casino I work at know I collect; so the ones who work in the cages and bars look for me. It's always a "jackpot" for me at work when one of them finds me something good, like a roll of Mercs. Just so the guest can get their $5 and play one hand of blackjack. Makes me kinda wonder where they got them.

Herbaby I hope so ! Thanks nickelsearcher, I'll work on that I take all my photos with a cell phone . Nickel guy that would be awesome to come to work to find something like that all I find is concrete trucks waiting for me to pour. I do have a few of the ladies around some gas stations and restaurants that watch for wheaties for me .
