<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 1376577, member: 15929&quot;]Reading comprehension appears to be your weakness since it clearly states 40% Silver composition in the Redbook. These coins are never referred to by the content of the cladding weights and are always referred to by their TOTAL weights. Of course you could zoom in on the 80% Silver Cladding but in the Coin World you&#039;d be the minority.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the Pawn Shop story, I&#039;ll take it as that. A Story. </p><p><br /></p><p>The burdon of proof rests in your hands and until it can be proven otherwise, by an expert, all you possess is a holed 1969-D Kennedy Half worth no more than melt value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Email Fred Weinberg at <a href="mailto:fred@fredweinberg.com">fred@fredweinberg.com</a> . Provide the photo you&#039;ve taken. He&#039;ll more than likely give you an opinion which I doubt that you&#039;ll accept.</p><p>Next, email Mike Diamond of CONECA at <a href="mailto:mdia1@aol.com">mdia1@aol.com</a> and again attach your photo(s). Be sure to include your stories.</p><p><br /></p><p>Both parties may or may not want to examine your coin in hand. If they request this then by all means send it to them. Use a small Priority Mail Flat Rate Box and insure it for whatever you want. Both parties are highly qualified to make a determination on your piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please be sure to post the results as folks are always eager to learn something new.</p><p><br /></p><p>Other than the above, I could not advise you in any other way regarding your coin. Its a &quot;you said/they said&quot; situation that has no resolution other than to challenge your numismatic knowledge of which you freely state is very limited.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
