Every time a silver coin clinks in a teller's hand an angel gets his wings. She counts out the 12 dollars, and angels are getting their wings left and right. (I hope this doesn't mean a bus crashed) Of the 24, 14 are silver: 1964x1 1965x1 1966x1 1967x1 1968x6 1969x4 This is my first score of silver halves ever, and as my wife and I are moving to another country, I am super happy as I can sell these and get the equivalent of about 2 weeks staple groceries.
