I have owned a few shells and have had varying quality. This one is one of the best! The shell fit
all my dollars no problem. It is milled out very neatly (better than the shell I was using.) It sits
with less wiggle room than than the shell I was using. To top it off, I got it for less money than
the previous shell! Good quality for the money!

I got this shell cause I wanted to get a WL Hopping Half set from Roy and I had never seen any
product from him so I wanted to check his quality by myself.
I was surprised to find out such a
low quality! the distorsion is so high, the borders almost flatten and the surface is "matt" (from
the expansion procedure I guess).
It's at the same level of Tango..
I suppose that for the
custom products or more expensive sets the quality will be higher, but for sure I will not assume
the risk to get something similar to that.

I have owned several expanded shells over the years, and this one is as good as any I have ever had.
The quality of this shell far exceeds the relatively low price.

Blends in perfectly with the other half dollars and looks very very GENUINE, never come across a
better shell!

Love the shell, it works great. I had one already, but it is much easier to order a new one from
Penguin then to look for mine. Thanks.

5 stars because this is a great invention that can be used in so many tricks. I got it for a
spicific trick, but found mysel with a ton of new ones. This is a inspiration machine. The quality
of the coin is really good, especially because i was expecting to pay a lot more. The metal is not
distorted or broken in anyway. It is however a relitivley soft metal, and bends relitivly easily. It
did come bent in the mail. Probably due to mail services. I was able to bend it back as it was only
slightly bent, just becareful, and if it is really bent, bend it back with a coin in side. Over all
though it fits with every coin i have tried and i have had no problems.

I love this shell. I've had many over the years, this one is of the highest quality and works
flawlessly. Highly recommended.

I have bought several items made by Roy Kueppers and this half dollar expanded shell is typical of
his fine attention to great craftmanship. In fact, I only buy coin gaffs made by Roy. You can't go
wrong with Roy Kueppers!

Fits my quarters perfectly, doesn't get hung up when I need to remove it, looks perfect!
