<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bobbeth87, post: 1005470, member: 18369&quot;]This is not uncommon.&nbsp; I search half dollars all of the time and some of the 40%ers look very much like they have a copper core.&nbsp; Actually, the inner core is 80% copper and 20% silver with the outer edges being 80% silver and 20% copper (for a total silver percentage of 40%).&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen them with silver edges looking like a 90%er; I&#039;ve seen them (most often) with two shades of silver on the edge, a dark one and a lighter one; and sometimes (not very often), I&#039;ve seen them look just like a clad with a copper looking center (I did the ring test to make sure it was silver....and it rang true).&nbsp; So, your coin with a little copper showing through is not a rarity.</p><p><br /></p><p>GREAT find though, to find this in circulation!!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
