How do you feel about Modern?

🥰 I like them because I do …. and I am not expecting any substantial increase on their value ☺️
They are merely just pretty coin worth the spot.

    What would you say, is the year moderns actually start?

    Cent-1959 w/Memorial reverse design
    Nickel-1938 w/Jefferson
    Dime-1946 w/Roosevelt
    Quarter-1932 w/Washington
    Half Dollar-1948 w/Franklin
    Dollar-1971 w/Eisenhower

    "Two things are infinite: human stupidity and the universe; and I'm not sure about the universe."
    -Albert Einstein-

    Mistakes are natural. But repeated mistakes without reflection are something else. That may be the “stupidity” he was referring to. In research, he admitted uncertainty openly. “If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?” This shows humility. Even a Nobel laureate accepted doubt. That humility makes the quote less cynical and more observational.

    Modcrewman.

    The photos of your 1965 half dollars show the coins very well. The first/top photo shows a coin that has a better appearance than the other three coins. It has better quality obverse fields. The other three coins show obverse fields that appear to have flaws.

    Do the fields of the coins, in hand, appear as they do in the photos? If so, I have a suspicion that the coins will likely not receive a DCAM designation because the fields (as they appear in the photos) are impaired (this happened to my best 1965 SMS half dollar that graded MS66CAM last year; it has DCAM level frost but impaired fields).

    The obverse devices of the 1965 half dollars shown in your photos are of very high quality. They have few, if any, flaws.

    @Coinscratch I thought for a second there it was a 1988-D Wide AM, nice MS 67.

    @Coinscratch I have more than one roll of mint bright red 1988-D that is bound to have an MS66 or 67, but I have no luck with grading

    That gives me an idea about a discussion so I’ll ping you once I post it.
