<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mainebill, post: 1890174, member: 44004&quot;]Same. Reason so many bust halves were coined and why so many are in fairly high grade they were the major silver coin for bank transactions from 1804-39 there weren&#039;t any silver dollars made so many were stored in bank bags and vaults&nbsp; same thing from 1878 on with silver dollars they didn&#039;t make many halves then but most they did make were again in bank vaults the earlier dates were prolifically made and were the major circulating half dollar coinage until production stepped up again in the 1890s[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
