Kells324 New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 08/29/2023 7:14 pm It's me again.sorry.so I've recently looked through $4000 worth of Kennedy rolls from the bank. Throughout all the rolls together, I found this stack of coins without edging/texture. All of these coins also have the "grease" markings as well. Do these things typically happen together? Where can I find more info about this? Thanks again Report this Post to the Staff

mike31093 Valued Member United States 354 Posts	Posted 08/30/2023 08:30 am I've got 20 or 30 Kennedy half's but never thought to examine reeding. So if you have a silver or otherwise notable coin, how much does this affect value? Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19122 Posts	Posted 08/30/2023 09:04 am Agree--lots of wear, most likely the result of mechanical damage. I'm thinking 'old school' slot machines'. Went through the Reno airport many, many years ago and came across several well used halves pouring out of slot machines. Looked just like these examples. Report this Post to the Staff
nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 08/30/2023 11:23 am a silver coin with worn reeding would have to be of very low mintage to be worth above its silver value Report this Post to the Staff
