<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 24589608, member: 27832&quot;]The relief on these is <i>really</i> high. Wikipedia and Numista both say it&#039;s 2.15mm, same as a Kennedy half, but those entries might have been written by someone who assumed all modern half dollar designs have the same thickness. (Really, they should, and they might.)</p><p><br /></p><p>If that figure is true, and if the fake is copper-coated silver, it should be around 10% thicker, so... 2.375mm? Or maybe they made the dished parts shallower so the rim would be closer to the right thickness, but I don&#039;t give them that much credit.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, mine isn&#039;t where I thought it was, so it&#039;ll be a while before I can get to it. (First order of business will be making sure MINE isn&#039;t one of the same fakes!)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
