    Great snag Calabash! I've found several half cents, but never a half dime. Maybe someday. Looks like the IH was made into a child's whizzer toy - always cool to find those. Best.

    I've got a Seated half dollar, a seated quarter, a handful of seated dimes. But for the life of me, I can't seem to get my coil over a seated half dime, or any half dime for that matter. One day, one day it'll happen.

    Great site! I'm sure there's more goodies waiting.
    Congrats!
