Only got two rolls worth of dollars today, had to trade out the rest of my quarters for dimes, but of those rolls, I ended up with something I've only ever found once before, and never with a dollar coin.

An impaired proof! A 2007-S John Adams Presidential dollar

Last time this happened period was with a 1981-S penny, which was in way worse shape than this is.

Maybe next time I'll find a dumped Innovation Dollar lol

I used to hunt small dollars with a fury. They seem to be pretty common actually. I'd get about 6-15 per box.

Thank you!

That's the main appeal of small dollars to me, there's tons of varieties to look out for, common and rare, across several different series.

small dollars are literally my go to for CRH because of this. Proofs are my absolute favorite to find. I would usually buy $500 at a time and find between 1-3 proofs. plus tons of NIFC and the occasional wide rim SBA

@YourGeorgiaPeach - I search small dollar coins. Finding proofs are fairly common. People break open proof set and spend them.

What else are you looking for when searching small dollar coins?
