    Pretty nice gift, considering the recent catapult in silver price.

    How 'bout the 18-S?

    The 1918 S is no better than Good.

    When I was looking through these coins I noticed the reverse of the 1963 D half. Is this just machine doubling?

    I have a Canon Power Shot A630. I shot the close-ups through a 10x loupe.
