[QUOTE="benveniste, post: 1271408, member: 25547"]You can look this stuff up, don't 'ya know. In 1968, the coin shrunk from 29.72mm and 11.66 grams to 27.13mm and 8.1 grams. In 2000 the weight was reduced to 6.9 grams. Each change was also accompanied by a change in composition. A current U.S. Half dollar is 30.61mm and 11.35 grams in copper-nickel and 12.5 grams in 90% silver form.[/QUOTE]
