Peaceman Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 08/05/2011 6:48 pm While seaching half dollar rolls I've noticed that some dates have Sharpe marks on them that are not "obvious" dates to look at. What are collectors looking for in the dates below if anything? I can't find anything in the CherryPickers Guide. 1976 1976-D 1984-D 1995-D Report this Post to the Staff

Peaceman Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 08/05/2011 9:44 pm Sorry.... As I search through halves, I'd see a sharpe dot on the 1976-D tower.... I seen hundreds of them. Question is, what error are they looking for... if an error at all. I'd think a quick look is easy to determine a MS coin. Why take the time to mark it? Yes, I hoard 82/3 already.
