    Hidy ID. It sure was hard to clean up , then it didnt want to turn on my polishing cloth , like it had something on it . I was about to wonder if it was real or not . Never had one to do that .

    Around here, half dimes are hard to find. I have only found 2 so far. But we don't get a lot of coins with holes either. But I would be happy with any half dime lol Nice assortment of relics and some sweet silver too. And watch out for them turkeys...they steal your coins and are real good pick pocketers too
    Finding relics is in my blood
