<p>[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 7505422, member: 90692"]What NGC has done is list bicentennial halves as “1776” because it has a double date (1776-1976). It shows at the top of the list at their coin guide. Bicentennial coinage was produced for <i><b>2 years</b></i> beginning in 1975, but no coin carries the numerals for the first year. I believe this is true for quarters, halves and Ike dollars. ...And they made tons and tons of them. The only half dollar with some juice is the ‘76-S silver proof listing at $5.00 for a MS60. Business strikes need to be MS63 or better for any significant value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps to clarify...jmho...Spark[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
