4 40% Kennedy Halfs
Got a roll of half dollars at the bank and found 4 1968 Kennedy halfs in it!
Went back and asked for another roll but the one I got was the only one they had |

I used to order rolls of half dollars from my bank, 10 rolls at a time, but haven't in a long while. I've mined a lot of silver doing that. Several months ago, one of the tellers had a handful of half dollars sitting in her stacking/counting tray. From five or six feet away, I could see that there were some silver clad coins, so I bought them all. She was glad to get rid of them. When I asked, she said a customer traded them in earlier that day. Of the 13 Kennedy halfs, 2 were copper clad, 10 were 40 percent silver, and one was a 1964. Score! john |

I went to a local bank and got $120 of halves. There was no silver at all. Most of the coins were badly worn. I took them to the bank where I have an account. The teller insisted I had to have them counted in her machine and took the rolls. She dropped one roll and lost 3 coins. The machine lost two (although I was able to convince her manager to open the machine and give back those 2 coins. Sure glad it worked for you! |
