There is a 40% '76 proof...looks just like a regular 40% on the edge. I've only ever found 1...it's a tough pull.



1976-S 40% halves were minted as circulation strikes and as proofs. There is also a 1976-S clad proof. The 1976-S 40%ers have the SILVER patina like the other 40%ers.

So, there three kinds of 1976-S halves.

YES...It keeps the stats honest.

Your stuff looks like the coins I've been getting lately.

Did $240 in customer rolls (about $190 were fed type rolls which were searched and re-deposited in the same machine wrapper) and found 1 40%.

Picked up another $5 loose and found 1 40%

So $245 today and 2 40's.

My averages continue to go down :(

I had a huge score once when all the halves I purchased were 40%'s. That was several months back and they only had about $12 face. Lately, in 2010, I have found very little.

Did you find these in bank rolls? If so, how many rolls did you search?

That makes 3 silvers in a mere 9 rolls this month

Has anyone ever kept up with different "hunter's marks" on the coins? I thought about collecting and tracking those just to see if other people have ran into them as well.

Anyone ever seen a green cursive L (fine point sharpie) in front of JFK's face, or 1974's with the 74 part colored purple (looks like it was made with a bingo marker)?

The last 2 boxes I got had half the forum members' marked dumps in it :(

It's Half Time...all the time.

While dumping today went to a two machine dump location and got twice the usual amount of free coins from magnets and reject chute. If this is what the foreign legion section is for, please, I don’t want to compete. I couldn’t type it up every day and some of these coins are Arabic and Cyrillic or something I can’t read. Just passing on the info. I do this at all my dump banks, about 9 locations close by.
All locations leave me alone, used to seeing me?, when I pull out the 7”x10” coin box on the counters. I am discreet about removing the wad of coins from the magnets.
Also, the poorly designed reject chutes all trap coins and I bring a modified backscratcher to free the trapped coins. Can be silver here. The machine rejects silver quarters. So today:
3-1943 Steel Cents
Canada:
1-Loonie
10-quarters no silver
3-Nickels 1=64’ 2-late
1=dimes no silver
14-pennies
Mexico
1-1 dollar
1-2 dollar
1-$.50
Cayman islands 1-quarter
France 1-Franc
Italy 500 Lire
Cuba 10-centavos
Euro $0.18 in 8 coins
Jamaica 1-Dollar (maybe worth a nickel) and 10 cents
Barbados cool $1 coin
Nederlands 10 cent
England 5-pence
Brazil (Brasil) 1-centavo
Ukraine 10-Konihok
Germany 5-Pfenig
Poland-10-groszy

Big fat coin, appears to be cupronickel, detailed coat of arms with three spires up top. Stalin type on obverse. Can’t make out the letters AT ALL, no numbers period.
Typical double daily amount but more spots on the globe.

So now I have a table full of jars with one for each major country and then regions and a Tupperware with unidentifiable stuff to date.
Today’s big bonus: went to a bank near the coin show which started today and asked for a box of pennies and nickels. Got a new box of LP4’s! Shocker.
Also fed the habit at fun show. Brought all my error coins and had some neat conversations. Wild day.
