<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 334395, member: 66"]He did, but the 1974 coins were struck half way thru 1975, and all of the 40% silver Bicentennial coins were also struck in early to mid 1975 (There were no 1975 quarters.) So there might be a SLIGHT chance that a silver planchet used for the special display bicentennial coin may have somehow gotten in with the clad coinage blanks. this would really be a stretch though because the regular silver bicentennials were struck in San Francisco and the special display coins were struck in Philadelphia. A small number of silver planchets would have had to have been sent from CA to PA and then after the special coins were struck they have to lose track of the extra planchets?! Seems pretty far fetched Much more likely its just been silver plated.</p><p><br /></p><p>My original line should have said "About the only way I could see this as being FROM a 40% silver bicentennial would be...."[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
