Got $18.50 in fifty cent pieces from the bank and the first coin I started with was a 1968 and wow a missing A great had 3 kept it and moved on.
Had 8 1974 and the first 2 where missing S and a couple later a missing A turned out to be a good haul.

So please grade my 1974 missing S thank you

Looks like it had some mild circulation. AU-55.

The worst part about getting 50 cent and nickel dollars is when the teller counts them sliding them on the counter into there hands.

Yes but when I turn them back to the bank I'm done with them. For a while I was getting back what I thought I had gone through already so I keep them and when I go to another town I cash them in, now I don't see those again. Right now I have $120 in dollars and $36 in .50 ready to go.

The S is located at the mirror image of where the T is seen. That is to the right above the UE in the word USQUE.

Thanks!
Got it! And another silly question. What does the t and s stand for? I'm guessing designer initials?
