1968-D Silver half-dollar
I have a question that I hope someone can answer. I have a 1968-D half
dollar that I could swear is more silver than copper. There is no visible copper tone on the eadge of the coin; It is normally quite apparent. It is tarnishing more like silver, as compared to the other coins in my collection, and produces a different, higher, tone when dropped, or struck by another object. I have not been able to find any websites that talk about such a coin ever being made and didn't want to feal like an idiot taking it in to a coin shop. If anyone has any input as to if this coin might be worth anything, or is in any special, I would be very appreciative. Brian |
