Complete BU Set of Franklin Silver Half Dollars. The 62 D has less brightness, A few have some bag marks, like the 53 D. I have to do a profit/loss statement on his items, as he was a hit and miss investor. Lamar died a few years ago, almost one year after my mom's horrible death from Alzheimer's, and he left behind a 90-year collection of everything an engineer could ever want and keep, mostly coins and duck prints and golf clubs, oh my! They both attended Compton College (where my grandpa,'Pop' Powars, was a team coach) and then Lamar got his degree in engineering at USC.

Lamar was a handsome, smart and strapping young veteran when he first spotted my gorgeous mom across Compton college campus after returning from the horrors of WWII. When he showed up at the annual Sadie Hawkins dance, my mom, the kind peace-keeper and beauty queen from a loving family, asked my dad to dance, and they never again parted until her death.

They lived in the same house next to the Country Club in California for 45 years, which was stuffed full of treasures and junk. He was greatly impacted by the Great Depression, and so hoarded anything deemed even remotely, possibly, potentially useful sometime in the next half century or so. He was one of the original'Preppers,' always stockpiled with food and water, gold and silver, and hunting and fishing gear. Well prepared for any Armageddon, which, of course, NEVER came.
