That proof doesn't have much cameo, probably why it's in the trash. Shame, somebody would have liked it fresh, now you have to give it to Aristarchus123, he's the only one I know collects imparted proofs! Only place I like seeing cracks is on coins...

Great finds, Mark1959. That 38 is very nice, and proofs in the wild are awesome! Quote: now you have to give it to Aristarchus123, he's the only one I know collects imparted proofs! You have a great memory, CrazyBO! I'm slowing building my CRHing impaired proof set!

Great finds!  I have yet to find a proof of any sort in the wild. P.S. I sent you a PM.

Being your first proof find,you should put it in a 2x2 and label it as such. Years from now it will be extra cool. John1

Nice! I just found my first impaired proof while nickel roll hunting as well, last week. I posted the pic in the main nickel hunting thread.

Oh, I love finding proofs while CRHing, even if their impaired state renders them FV worthy only. I've found seven so far, all Kennedy halves, including a silver bicentennial! Even if they're circulated, they'll often have a pretty attractive look to them.

7 proofs are pretty good. This has been my only proof of any denomination in 2 years - not good odds for finding another any time soon.
