<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 2063718, member: 27832&quot;]Okay, if &quot;Silver Dollar&quot; is A-OK for clad Ikes, what about this?</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kennedy-Silver-Half-Dollar-1776-1976-/261739169014?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item3cf0dec4f6" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kennedy-Silver-Half-Dollar-1776-1976-/261739169014?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item3cf0dec4f6" rel="nofollow">Kennedy Silver Half Dollar 1776-1976</a></p><p><br /></p><p>...for a circulated, P-mint Bicentennial half. At $20 BIN, I don&#039;t think the seller will be getting any bites, but there&#039;s also a starting bid of 99 cents, and shipping is free. Someone who didn&#039;t know better might bid $2 thinking they were getting a good deal on a 40% half.</p><p><br /></p><p>The difference, as I see it: &quot;silver dollar&quot; is an established and common phrase for large dollar coins, and I understand why people use it correctly, but it&#039;s still misleading in the context of an eBay listing. &quot;Kennedy Silver Half&quot; is flat-out deceptive.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, it still might just indicate that the seller is clueless. Given the number of &quot;silver 1943 penny&quot; and &quot;silver 1964 nickel&quot; listings, it&#039;s clear that a lot of people are confused.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
