[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2495444, member: 15929"]Saving Clad Half Dollars is strictly a personal choice which, after 20, 30, or 40 years, you'll ask yourself "What the Heck was I thinking?" In reality, clad half dollars may be "drying up" in your area but there are literally millions, upon millions of them in Federal Reserve Vaults and circulation. Banks will order $500 boxes for you as long as you don;t bring them back. In short, a waste of storage space since, unless they are a somewhat valuable variety (which is an extremely THIN and FICKLED market), they'll never be worth more than 50 cents. Now, if you figure out a way of living say, 500 years, then maybe they have some value but certainly not within your or my lifetimes. Having said that, searching CnClad Kennedy Half Dollars for varieties can be a very rewarding activity. Storing thousands of dollars worth........not so much.[/QUOTE]
