Went out on my dirt bike yesterday to do some recon in the Sierra forests looking for a good place to swing. Came across an old decommissioned campground, so I headed out there this afternoon after chores. It looks like it must have been closed in the early 70's by the looks of what I was finding. Found a couple of wheaties, so I knew I was on the right track. Then I get this solid 95 on the Simplex, which is usually the number for the end of an aluminum can. I could hardly believe it when a 44 walking half emerged!

Then, only 7-8 feet away, another!

The wheats are a '44, '50 and a '53.

That’s AWESOME! :occasion14:
 

Awesome halfs! Possibly America's most beautiful coin. Double congrats!
 

Awesome!!!!! Congrats!!!!!
 

Have you noticed that most of the Walkers found on this forum have a WW2 date on them. That's because we had full employment...everyone was working because of the war. And, there wasn't much to spend all that money on. Gas was rationed, you couldn't get tires. Certain foods were rationed. So everyone had a pocket full of money and some got lost. A LOT got lost really. Gary
 

Wow , that's a rare day - to find two nice silver half
dollars !
 

Very Nice!!!
 

Awesome halfs! Possibly America's most beautiful coin. Double congrats!

Agreed! I actually bought one of those 1oz. walker coins when they first came out because I thought it was so beautiful!
