    $5 for the uncirculated and $3 for the proof.
    Bet Balboa's bust looks even better in person.

    Welcome Russ....welcome to the darkside...bwahahahahahaha....you have found the door...
  • It was made in the USA, so the force isn't as strong with that one...

    You're safe, Russ, as long as you keep it isolated.

    But in Panama, they actually use the halves in everyday life. Not like here!!!image They also use the US dollar for currency, and they have some real ratty looking ones there.

    It looks pretty nice & clean. A nice example. I think the guy has his cowboy hat on sideways.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
