<p>[QUOTE="cladking, post: 925687, member: 68"]Silver did play a huge part in hoarding the early Kennedys. You're probably right that many of the people putting these away would have done so even if they were aluminum but being "good silver" was a primary factor for a large percentage of the people saving them. Look at how much more difficult the 1965 half dollars are to find just because they're only 40% silver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
