I haven't been on in a while, but wanted to share a couple of finds my dad and I have made lately. The first is his, the second is mine. I think both are pretty amazing!
Cheers!

Nice!!!!!
Never found a silver dollar yet, nice score! Very unusual use of a clad half, but a cool find.
Ah yes, forgot about the reduced silver mintage. Any info on the maker of the piece? Could be some lost artists piece maybe?
Wow those are really cool!
Thanks for the replies! The half is stamped with "(c) Alvin Hutson 1966." It looks like he made quite a few of these as they can be found on Ebay, Etsy, etc. Definitely not an everyday find though!
nice push up coin , i found one a few years ago and was over the moon with it.
here is a link.

That's a couple of rare finds. I would like to see the process used to raise that face on the JFK. Really unique find. Thx for posting WD
Yeah, I'd also like to see how they do that! Another thing to add to my wish list, thanks! :lol:
Congrats!!!
:rofl: No kidding Drew!
Those push up coins are cool! A few years ago while hunting with Mike, (Silverstar), he found a pushup Barber dime silver ring! That was cool too! But this big coin has much more detail. Very cool! :cool:
But not as cool as a Peace dollar!! :shocked04:
Other than a gold coin, a silver dollar is one still on the MOST WANTED list.
Congrats to ya both! :grin:
Really good to see a post from ya Z! :yes:
Welcome back , those are two truly amazing finds .
Two finds that you don't see posted.....huge congrats.
I'm not sure how I missed this post. Both of those finds are incredible! I love the Kennedy half. It is a very unusual find. So cool!
And a Peace Dollar! WOW! That is a spectacular find! What kind of site was it found at? I am still looking for my first silver dollar.
:congrats:
I'm glad to see you and your dad are still getting out , Both of these are great finds ! :notworthy:
