I posted this and owned this many years ago, but sadly, they're all gone now.

But just having these early halves stacked in a roll was a numismatic treat.

    That could be all of us driving, once the coin shows open up again.

    lol!! I guess I need to take a picture after she shaves!

    I think the "fingers" are inconsistencies in the die when it was tooled... it looks "as struck"...

    Before last weekend's Saturday Night Live, you likely could have bought a Tesla with one (or two) of those >:)

    Found 50 1995 DDO Lincoln cents back in 1995 in a $25 box from a southern Maryland bank. Used three of these cents in a trade for a uncirculated $2.5 gold quarter eagle Indian head that same year.

    You have any more?
