    This happens more often than you think. I worked at a bank for a while and the majority of silver coins I took in came from school cafeteria deposits. Only thing I could figure is kids would raid their parents coin stash for lunch money not knowing the value of the coins. I ended up buying them out of the cashier drawers at the end of the day and over the year that I worked there I collected at least 200 coins like these.

    I don't get super excited over roll hunting. It is usually circulated stuff that anyone can find. I will say this - Kennedy Half Dollars are known for Double Dies, and they can be worth more than the junk silver combined.So yes, a Clad Doubled Die Obverse or Doubled Die Reverse can fetch big bucks. Have a look at VarietyVista.com, look under the Kennedy Half Dollar area.

    When I was in Jr. high School back in the early 70's, we had a fad where all the kids would get a big honkin metal soup spoon, and stand around before and after school just tapping away on the edge of a 50 cent piece, slowly rotating it, etc. The end result was a flattened and widened coin like you found. The goal was to reduce it to the size of your finger (or your girlfriends finger), then have your dad drill it out an viola, a nice metal ring.

I asked for twenty 10 dollar bills when I made a cash withdraw. 12 of them were beautiful, crisp, like new bills from the 1930s......they looked like the day they were printed. I suspect that some very old person died and the family found a stash of money in the house and deposited it.

  • @RonBand01
    @RonBand01 5 років тому +4

    The coin that you saw started with a normal planchette (blank.) That coin was shaped (flat edged) by a jeweler and a hoop was added around it. It was then attached to a chain. Sometimes the jeweler would use a gold electroplating process on the coin and then sell it with a 14 carat gold chain as a necklace. When silver was high in the 70's, a normal cupronickel (clad) coin was used with a silver necklace. That was short lived because silver tends to turn body parts green when mixed with our body's chemicals. They also have a better process now for fitting a coin into a hoop that keeps from deforming the coin. I have a friend with a 190(?) Twenty dollar liberty gold piece mounted with this non deforming process and she had it custom mounted that way, as the coin originally belonged to her father.

  • @oculusangelicus8978
    @oculusangelicus8978 5 років тому

    Nice little roll of glee you have there! My parents had over thirty or forty silver Kennedy head half-dollars, the way they got them from living in Canada, is that they used to take U.S. Currency in taxi cab with the standard of $1.25 exchange rate, back when my parents had a small Cab business in the Sixties, and when the U.S. mint announced they were going to reduce the silver and then eventually remove it, my parents kept every silver coin they came across. Even back then everyone knew that keeping the silver was a good idea. As I recall, they had a hard time with getting people (other than Banks) to return the old currency, like they were hoping that they could extract the silver from the old coins for use by the mint in other items, but people had other ideas! Happy digging!

    G’day, I worked as bank rep. in the States while attending University and witnessed first hand, the amazing coins people brought to the bank to exchange for paper. The coins we’d get from customer’s were absolutely insane. A lot of folks that want paper currency, will raid their coin jars & coin banks and roll up all sorts of dates, regardless of the coin’s age, even including error coins! If a customer wants paper money, it’s truly astonishing what they’ll bring to exchange. Obviously, that happened to the bank where Dave scored that massive roll with the Walking Liberty Halves! Maybe one day, you’ll find rolls with either Barber, Capped Bust, or Seated Liberty Halves ~ Fingers Crossed Mate!!! Continued success. Cheers from Mandurah, Western Australia!

He puts the value of his collection worth over 6 figures. It is absolutely breath taking of how many rare coins and other currency he has.

    So I've got a question, im new getting into coin roll hunting. With all the other half dollars, after you've gone through them and inspected them for any other rarities, do you then just sell them back to the bank and basically get your money back? Or how does it quite work? I guess it seems to me like: buy coin rolls with cash, check rolls for silver, sell remaining clad coins back to bank and put money back into your account?

    The "thick" coin you were talking about is from someone starting to make a ring out of the coin and they stopped. Its thick from pounding it on its edge on an anvil.

      1964 and before are 90 percent silver and 65/66/67/68/69 are 40 percent silver and the ender means on the coin roll both ends are called enders

    New to the hobby. Congrats. One word of advise: don't be envious of another man's (or woman's) coin collection because as I am discovering, no two collections will be the same. Various factors go into it. Locale, personal taste and market demand at the time just to name a few. Your own library of coins will form organically. So be patient and happy hunting everyone.

    In 1964, as a boy, I delivered newspapers. A week's newspaper delivery cost 42 cents. I collected the fee from customers weekly and carried it in a bank deposit bag. Most
    of the customers paid 50 cents and let me keep the change, an 8 cents tip. The 20 some
    bucks of mostly silver change I collected every week would be worth today around $400.!!

    That thick coin was probably started to become a ring, maybe for practice. Note the missing edge pattern, and the 'curling of the rim,like a dish.Making a ring with silver coins is a painstaking process with many small hammer hits.

    2 weeks ago weather and health prevented me from detecting. My wife suggested I buy a box of halves ( I LOVE HER!) so I swung by the bank and they had 2 boxes. I bought one and the wifedecided to help out. We found 2 ‘64 Kennedy’s, a ‘53 Franklin and a ‘42 Walker. We also found 13 40% coins, 5 proofs, and 40 uncirculated. Then went back and bought the other box. Only found a ‘40 and a ‘46 walkers the ‘40 is gorgeous but the ‘46 is uncirculated and fantastic. Also found 11 40% coins, another proof and 36 uncirculated. Also 5 error coins including 2 no FGs. So much fun.

    That extra thick coin looks like someone tried making a ring with a spoon but then realized it was clad a decided to stop wasting their time with it.
    I tried once when I was a kid and it looked exactly the same. I didn’t know it then, but you have to heat the coin up to soften the metal and then beat it down with the spoon to widen it.
    Great find no doubt !

    The coin with the fat rim has been hammered People used to hammer half dollars down into wide bands and make rings out of them. They would hammer them down and then drill the hole out of the center. My grandfather used to make them for the girls in my family.
