Hey Everyone, Today I have been going through my Ben Franklin Half dollars I have scored over the years while CRH. While inspecting my Franklin half dollar for errors I found this awesome 1956 "Bugs Bunny" FS-401 Ben Franklin Half Dollar. I have found over 400 half dollars over the years CRH and I decided to take a closer look at them today. I can't believe I have had this in my collection and didn't even know. What an awesome find. Enjoy!

    Very nice find. 👍🏻

    Tip to everyone: always check and double check your collection. I've cherrypicked my own collection more then once over the years. Having a doubled Die or something significant in your collection and not know it...............well, you know the rest of the story.

    Nothing like cherry picking yourself.

    Thanks everyone, For sure double check your own collection. I hope to find some more GEMs. I have a lot to check. I have always seen the 55 and 56 Bugs Bunny. Those are the most talked about and sought after. Did you Know the Bugs Bunny starts with the 1949 through 1963. No known 1957-58's. Time to complete the set now. LOL
