$.60 FV Sure it's not $.53 FV?  You've got a '43 Walker Half and a Mercury dime there. |

The Walker probably met it's fate by a lawnmower. the merc is so distorted, cupped ans thinned, I think it was in a fire and melted.  |

Can one use them to purchase stuff if there were a financial meltdown, I wonder?

For the Merc, it must be fire. The Walker may be as well, along with some other happenings. It would actually be something I'd hold on to for curiosity's sake!  I'm glad you got your gems as advertised.  Quote:Sure it's not $.53 FV? Can they have face value if there's no face?  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

@ spruett011, "Can they have face value if there's no face?"  |

That is what I thought. Thanks for confirming it for me, spruett001!

Walking Liberty was easy... but I thought the dime was Roosevelt.
Walker looks like it was bitten off by a monster.

Anyone else think of Pac-Man eating an energizer from looking at the pic? Or was it just me?
