According to Gresham&#039;s law, therefore, the half dollar was hoarded and other denominations spent. It took a couple/few years for the pre-1964 silver coins to be sorted out, but during that time new clad coinage replaced the old. This was not the case for the half dollar. </p><p><br /></p><p>Gresham&#039;s law is the only correct answer here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
