Man can't live by bread alone so when I was offered a killer deal on some WL and Franklin halves I jumped on it. Problem is I have no refrence material pertaining to varieties for these coins. Yes I did find some potential varieties. If anyone wants to offer help it would be greatly appreciated.~ Thanks lucky2

I can't remember the name at the moment, but there is a Walking Liberty variety book out there somewhere.

I'll try to find the name.

I save all my Cents (Circulated Change) search them each day. When I find nothing in them I wrap them up and throw them into a bank bag and hold them till the store I work in needs some cents. Well today I took in what I had accumulated and there were $25 in Cents. So the auditor asked if I would like some half dollars that she had accumulated, so I took them. There were 29 half dollars from 1962-1969, so I took them to the scope to see what I had. About 1/3 were machine doubled on the reverse. (Probably bring a fortune on Ebay. LOL) but among them I found two that were very interesting.
See what you think??


The reverse on the 1966 was machine doubled.. 8*(

The 64-D looks like my FS-013.6 DIE 5 TDO.

Smed: I found on of the 1964-D TDO's before. The seperation is stronger than the 64-D I found.

See if this is the same as your die??

Coop, that one looks like FD-013.5. Usually that one has an RPM.

I was so thrilled with the TDO I never checked for a RPM.
Nice North with maybe a couple more inside the MM. Got it at a coin show for $3.00. Never noticed that it was a TDO till I got it home and under the scope. I was just buying one for my collection. He had others, so I checked again next show, but he had discovered it by then. Price was up to $18. What does the Cherrypicker list it at? Just curious.

Beats me... that's one of the many coins I've been waiting on Vol II for. I figure them for about 15-20 bucks in AU/MS.
