I'm breaking the rules about 1 coin per thread...hit the back space arrow if you want...?

Been going through some rolls I picked up as a "All or Nothing" collection I bought last fall. I did the All...
They were all in plastic tubes...
Lots of just 90% stuff...over a hundred dollars of each dimes, quarters and half's...just counted them up...didn't look at any dates...and paid 15 x's face.

Well I was working my way backwards on the half's...Kennedy's, Franklin's now Walking Liberty's...

These are a big surprise to me...

1921-S

1923-S

1929-D... she might detail because of the old gash on her chest?

1933-S

and my favorite...I remember seeing it quickly when counting them all up thinking...oh that's a nice one...that'll make up for any slicks...
1917

She's had the obverse cleaned...Aarg!
You can see the cleaning scratches...the reverse looks fantastic in hand...no cleaning...just the obverse.
Just put em in 2x2's for now...
Wanted to share.
Sorry about all the pics...easier this way than try to post and explain each coin over again...

Nicely done! Bummer the obverse was cleaned on the 1917.
Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection:

Very nice pickup .The reverse of that 17-P WLH is razor sharp .If the obverse was as sharp and issue free you would have had at least a $1,000 coin IMHO !
Rest in Peace

Thanks all!
Strange part I don't get...when I bought all this 90%...there were also a couple complete albums of Franklins...all ave circ condition...and a partial Whitman 1916 to 1936 Liberty Standing Half Dollar album...I don't understand why 8 coins in the roll didn't get put in the album...there were 3 more I didn't post...16-S, 17-D obv and 19-D.
The collection had a lot going on...proofs from 1952-1982...all kinds of mint sets, prestige sets, modern gold, foreign, even some slabbed coins...not to mention Morgan and Peace dollars and don't forget nickels and cents...
So I figured the tubed coins had to be doubles/repeats since an album was started?
That's why this morning was such a surprise!
even if that 17 is cleaned : )
