This is my first photocert. Picked it up only because I’ve never owned one. 



On an unrelated note. I also got this for a deal. Should be a lot of fun.
Edited to add. These are illegal to sell in the U.S. I buy them whenever I can.

Cool pieces for sure!! That 42 looks pl and crsip
Love the Jarts, used to play that all the time as a kid, mostly at family gatherings at our cottage.
If they can't be sold, how did you buy them?

That does look like a pretty decent coin. Of course I don’t know if I graded it or not.
Nice coin, cert & lawn dart set.

Love the lawn darts and the half is sweet.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
They were banned from being sold in the US in 1988. They can be found at yard sales from time to time , but retail stores cannot legally sell them. This store just didn’t know.
Funny thing, last time I found a set was up in Ohio where I also found a hand full of capped bust half dollars for real cheap.

Maybe they’re good luck for me.
Hoarding is no joke...maybe 6 sets is enough
I like your half, was thinking it is a proof.
You might think about re-submitting that coin as a proof, sure looks it, unless its the photo. Have somebody who is good /knowledgeable check this coin in hand??
Who didn't love jarts......One always ended up sticking through the bottom of the pool......
Here’s about the best I can do with my cell phone. Although I’d love to snag a proof like that. I don’t think it is.

Thanks for the Lawn Dart info as I didn't know they got banned... Had a set as a kid and never heard of anyone getting hurt.
VERY nice coin and a great snag! Congrats!!
I caught a lawn dart on the top of the head back in the day...a gusher was struck that day. Maybe that is what is wrong with me...my wife says.
Cool Half Dollar with cert papers!

I don’t think we would have missed this on my watch.
That is a very nice WLH...and a great year
.... I have not seen lawn darts in many, many years...Now I know why...Cheers, RickO
Definitley not proof, that photo is better at showing surfaces
When I was a kid we threw thin straight up and ran I don’t know how we survived childhood
