Funny Stuff from the 80's

Anyone remember this?? thoughts??

ACK!!! Touching proofs with fingers!!!

I don't remember it at all. Interesting that it's an add for US Commems at KMart. Must have been one of those experimental marketing programs that the Mint tried.

That makes me cry a little bit inside. No wonder a majority of proofs I see are smeared with fingerprints and gunk.

Interesting to see what that smudged up thing looks like now with all the ca. 1986 contamination on it

i just think it's funny.... grandpa flying around the statue of liberty in his space ship...

Hahaha

He's from the future to ruin present day proof coins so that real nice coins will become scarce

How funny that is! Thank you, Matt.

Timing is everything. Not the proofs but got the statue of liberty uncirculated half and dollar today.

Not long ago I found some of the original marketing pamphlets that they gave away at the banks when selling these coins in 1986. It's funny to see stuff like that and actually remember buying the coins at the bank!
