    My 11 year old son loves to antique shop with me and my wife. Today, while on spring break, my wife and son went out shopping and he found this, and had my wife buy it for me.

    Pretty cool. I'll bet this thing has been in the box for 50 years. Not a lick of wear on it and its toned. I'd love to use it, not sure I can actually bring myself to do so.

    That was very thoughtful of your son. How many half dollars will it hold?

    Go ahead and use it, there are plenty of uncirculated Kennedy's around, but only one that your son was thoughtful enough to get for you. Wear it out proud.

    Wish my son got me a nice money clip instead of the tragic ties that he likes to get me and remind me to wear.

    They would be disappointed if you didn't use it.

    Great money clip! Very thoughtful!
    I inherited one with a Walking Liberty half from my grandfather, when he passed away.
