Hello all,

My top five finds for 2019 are:

1971 FS-101
1982 FS-1801
1983 FS-801
1983D FS-101
1963D FS-101

My Goal for this year is to CRH and find 2 out of the 4 below:
1964 FS-801, 1984 FS-101, 1988 FS-101, 1969S FS-101

Lets do this!

Took a break from CRH for a while last year, so no major ones for me. I also do a poor job keeping track of what I did find so maybe I'm just forgetting one?

I still need to send out that possible 1995 doubled ear. If that gets confirmed, it'll be that one.

Excited to see what others post!

Also, that's an incredible list levels! Good luck on the 69-S this year though .

A goal for me will be to discover a major 2020 doubled die. Some of the quarter designs this year look good for doubled dies. And, as long as the trend of one major quarter DDO a year, discovering one of those would be cool.

Have not heard back from Mr. Wexler but the 1993 D DDR I found CRH would have to be my best if it is attributed as such.

Do wheat bags/cherry picks count?

Edit: GC, if you chose any other coin I would be surprised.

I'd imagine they do. They fall under the same premise. Though cherrypicks I might have to say no to only because you aren't "searching" in the same sense you would be with rolls or bags.

I've had some great scores but without a doubt this is the coolest. If we were including cherrypicks there is one that tops this, but only in an economic sense.

LOM, I hope it doesn't throw off your thread if I put a cherry-pick here. I haven't found anything great CRH this year, although I did search/hunt for the coin I mention below.

This year I found an 1888-O Morgan dollar Hot Lips DDO VAM-4 in VG (possibly cleaned) searching a coin shop's junk Morgans.

Finally finding that coin was very exciting, even though it may be cleaned. Personally it is my favorite DDO and one that took me a while to finally cherry-pick. Given it's listing in the Red Book and almost all value guides that include Morgan dollars and major varieties, it has been tough to find unattributed. This year I hope to pick a nicer VF-XF example.

Nice finds everyone! Good luck hunting in the new year!

That is a decision I would be hard pressed to make. My CRH is mostly BU rolls, but some things like 1987-D/D RPM-003 (slabbed PCGS MS-66 RD), 1955 DDO-002 (slabbed PCGS MS-66 RD) and 1944-D DDO-001 (slabbed PCGS MS-66 RD) come to mind. The 1955 is the PCGS coinfacts main plate coin.

I thought about writing some sappy crap about finding a caring community and a shared hobby.

I didn't do much crh. I think two boxes this year. This one is my favorite. I've only seen three posted, which leads me to believe they aren't common!

I absolutely killed it on cherrypicks. There's so many varieties to look for I cant even look for a fraction of them! I've got one of my best coming in the mail today!
