Sometimes you spend $4, you get it home and say "Holy Crap that's nice!"

Picked this proof set today, spent $4 on it. When I got it home and looked close I just had to say HOLY CRAP! 1971 Kennedy Halves are so hard to find with white frost on both sides!

It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Just think you can melt the other silver coins, and make a buck, and get your half for free. LOL

    Tight Arse that you are, I'm surprised you managed to open your wallet up to let out $4 measily dollars. image

    Very nice Marty.
    I got my icon coin from a set like that, but I think I paid $4.50. I decided not to haggle (graded PCGS PR69Dcam).image

    With the way PCGS has been treating me on Moderns, it would grade a 67CAM right now!image
