Good Coin shell?
Anyone know of a fairly inexpensive, but good quality expanded half shell? Thanks!

Usually "inexpensive" and "good quality" are mutually exclusive!
That being said, Johnson is not bad at all for the price.your - belongs to you | you're - contraction of 'you are' | to - a prepostion | two - a number | too - additionally or excessively | there - a place | they're - contraction of "they are" | their - belongs to them | sleight - a secret move; slight - small in amount, slender | perform - not preform | could've or could have - not could of | fare - the price of conveyance | fair - free from bias | loose - opposite of tight | lose - opposite of win, or to misplace - #3

A reasonable shell such as a Tango or Johnson will do for most purposes, even with spectators burning your hands. If you hold them with a relaxed hand, the folds of your hand will cover any tell-tale signs.
I have a couple of Schoolcraft sets. They're invisible and beautifully made, but expensive. Most people don't need such a high quality shell, it's more for the pleasure of owning something so perfect. - #5

The rules are available online, so all you really need is a set of pieces with enough variety to keep things interesting.

My first shell was expanded Tango Half Dollar and yes it's cheap but so is the quality. I don't know if it's got better since I got mine two years ago. Recently I got expanded Johnson Eisenhower Dollar and it was 52$ compared to Tango's 36$. Johnson shell quality is much better than Tango in my mind.

Have to disagree.
Tango Expanded Shells are exceptional quality and a very good price.
The profile on the coin isn't stretched or distorted, and the edge/milling is excellent.
I use them professionally with no problems whatsover. - #8
