Imagine My Surprise....

When I opened this $500 box of halves and saw this walker?

To its upper left is a 1964 and to its upper right is a 1967. No dates yet as I want to savor this moment before I start picking through them!

By the way, I know this has been asked before, but how do you get the image to show up in the post? I think its attaching ok but all I see is the filename.

Thanks! I will review that thread. The walker that was showing was a 1936 with some cleaning scratch marks. Exactly behind that coin was a 1964! The next roll provided a 1945 thats in a litle bit better condition. So far I have gotten:

2 - 1964
1 - 1965
5 - 1967
2 - 1968D
2 - 1969D

and the two walkers!

It's gonna be a long night!

By the way, does this qualify me as a coin NERD?

Nerd ? Nah, I wish that I could get a bunch of half dollar rolls at my local bank !

Neat finds !

SC....OOOOO.....RRRRR....EEEE! Man I miss working retail. Everyday I'd go out to my till in the lawn and garden and bust open all my rolls and pull out the silver. I even had girls in the cash room looking for me. You'd find several every week....only if I could live off minimum wage again!

Click on your attachment. When you see the picture, righ-click that, scroll down to "properties", click that, and you will see the URL (web address) for the picture (or if you see it in your browser window, you can copy it from there).

Once you have the URL copied, you can post it in a thread or a PM by clicking the little picture frame icon that looks like this: You'll see it on the toolbar above where you type, but only when you are in Message Post or Send Private Message mode.

Another way to do it is to simply type {IMG}ThenPutYourURLhere{/IMG}, but you will use SQUARE brackets [ ] where I used the curly brackets. (If I had typed it with square brackets it would have shown a "red X" image).

Your URL is:

https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/oldattachments/ACF34A6.JPG

So with the image tags on it, you would have something that looks like:

{IMG}https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/oldattachments/ACF34A6.JPG{/IMG}

but once again, you will use SQUARE brackets [ ] where I used the curly brackets { }. And make sure there are no spaces in between your URL and the image tags.

Try it. It's rather longwinded to explain, but doesn't take very long to do.

Bought $100 in half dollars today from the bank and walked away with squat. All of them were yuck clad, and nearly half had the reeding worn right off the coins....yup...someone brought their winnings back from the casino and cashed them in.
