jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5208 Posts	Posted 03/14/2014 8:45 pm While going through a box today hunting I found another 1971D Kennedy half that was struck on quarter stock. After finding my first 2 I kept asking myself while going through every box I wonder if there is another one and how will I tell as I don't recall exactly why I set the first 2 aside back when other than their slightly off ring to them. Well after finding this one today I can say that it has a distinctive ring like a silver does compared to the other odd sounding clads. Report this Post to the Staff

jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5208 Posts	Posted 04/13/2014 03:30 am Found this one on ebay the other day http://www.ebay.com/itm/1963-Frankl...p=true&rt=nc The only other 1971D I have found was an MS60 from Heritage back in 2006 which sold for ~$230. So is the Franklin worth twice the price due to rarity, silver, MS63 grade, or ? Edited by jack jeckel 04/13/2014 03:31 am Report this Post to the Staff

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2738 Posts	Posted 05/01/2014 2:46 pm Without a precise weight, there's no way to be certain that the Franklin half was struck on quarter stock. The grading services have a bad habit of confusing rolled-thin errors with wrong stock errors. Furthermore, they seldom compare the coin's weight to the expected weight of a wrong stock error.

Bad Karma Valued Member United States 71 Posts	Posted 07/04/2015 12:27 am Are the formulas for the weight of coins struck on wrong stock listed anywhere? Web rot seems to have taken the page referenced above. Thank you. --Curtis Report this Post to the Staff
