"Ask not what you can do to your half":

Ten years older and still perfect hair:

Beads made from Mercury dimes. Think they will slab?

Ummm might have worked better if it was a 1976, don't you think?:

but you have to remember that the bicentennial design started a year early on the 1975 issues of: 25c, 50c and dollar

They might slab at NCS or ANACS as original.

Those Mercury Dime beads are pretty cool. Do you know how they were made?

I don't think they are "horrors". They didn't lessen the value, actually they made something collectible out of (pretty much) junk.

SilverEagles92,

I'm afraid i don't know the process but whoever did it did a very neat job of joining
the two halves together. I only have three or else I would have made a nice
necklace out of them.

While technically it may be correct to stamp the '75 penny it
just looks odd with the 1776-1976 next to it.
