Agreed, when they first started doing the clad commemorative half dollars back in 1986 they specifically said they were included so that kids/YN's would have a low priced option that would let then have something to collect. Originally they wer $2.50 for the Unc coins. The price didn't break $10 till 2003. By 2008 they had dropped back to $8. Prices started going nuts with the next issue in 2011 at $16. They broke the $20 level in 2016, $26 in 2019, $37 in 2020.
