There were 96 in an album in the cardboard holders stapled closed.I saw a video of the Transitional error an decided to open the 1971-D and 1972-D coins out of 15 I found this 1971-D and a 1972-D I will only post the photos of the 1971-D in this thread and will post the 1972-D in another thread not to confuse. OK Can anyone please advise. thank you. Edited by William Flynn 04/09/2017 10:36 am Report this Post to the Staff

William Flynn New Member United States 41 Posts	Posted 04/09/2017 10:52 am 40% silver copper clad instead of copper nickle clad change of composition error or transitional error. I hope I explained that right. I guess I should send it to PCGS. Have a blessed Day. Report this Post to the Staff
William Flynn New Member United States 41 Posts	Posted 04/09/2017 10:56 am It might be plated? I don't know the weight difference or how to tell. Report this Post to the Staff
cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 04/09/2017 11:01 am 1971 half dollar weight is 11.34g while a 40% Silver half is 11.5g. Yours is plated. You can tell by the finish and the weight is within tolerance for a clad half. Report this Post to the Staff
