<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 212565, member: 3011&quot;]Douglas,</p><p><br /></p><p>You are correct.&nbsp; The disappearance of halves is as much a matter of habit, technology, and fashion than anything else.&nbsp; But people [non-collectors] don&#039;t want them so the banks don&#039;t generally carry them.&nbsp; One would think that as inflation erodes the value of money and fewer items can be purchased with small change, the halves would become more popular, not less.&nbsp; But that didn&#039;t happen.&nbsp; The Kennedy halve is a great looking coin and it&#039;s a shame it is disappearing.&nbsp; Whenever I see one in a cash register drawer, I ask the cashier if I can have it.&nbsp; They are more than happy to get rid of it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
