[QUOTE="Pocket Change, post: 864178, member: 8012"]This really hits the question on the head. Back in the day, when silver was not at $18/oz., you could always count on the face value of the coin. At $3.35/oz. for silver, the 40% Kennedy half dollar has 50 cents face value and/or 50 cents silver value. If silver gets to $3/oz., you are better off to take it to the bank and turn it in at face value. 1972 was the last year the average price of sliver was under $2/oz. But as late as 1992, the average price os silver was only $3.75 or so.[/QUOTE]
