<p>[QUOTE="adric22, post: 1611816, member: 38146"]I'm doing a little research for a project and I've been unable to find the exact answer to this. On the 1965-1970 Kennedy half dollars, and presumably also the silver IKE coins that are 40% silver, how was this done? Do they take essentially 3 thinner coins, with the center one being copper and just mash them together like an OREO cookie? Or is there some other process?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
