I've always loved Adolph Alexander Weinman's half dollars.

Here are some new pickups. I just really love the proof!

Post yours!

    @joeykoins That's an awesome no initials! Does PCGS generally recognize this variety?

    Thanks. Hmmm? Good point? Maybe that's the reason why they didn't give me the designation? Although, I did speak to a PCGS representative. She told me the graders didn't feel that the initials were enough gone to have the variety. :#

    Beautiful, dude!
    Yes, have to agree. So good, the Mint used his identical obverse design for the Silver Eagle program. B)

    That's a stunner and I agree! Thanks for mentioning it! :+1:

    Just picked up this proof and this seemed like an appropriate thread to show it off. It’s in a 67 holder with CAC approval. I’m working on a full set of these, all CAC with original cellophane hazy toning.


    Nothing is as expensive as free money.

    Excellent thread!

    Time to bring it down a few notches so my fellow collectors in steerage don't feel left out! 😂 🤣
