Has anyone found out if 2005 Kennedy's were put into circulation by the Mint? I came up with 23 out of a box and a half. They all look like they haven't been in circulation very long. Red Book says that they were, and about a million more were minted, compaired to the other years.

The last year of circulating half dollars was 2000, they have all been NIFC since then. BTW, the US Mint does not circulate any coins- that is the job of the Federal Reserve and they stopped ordering new half dollars in 2000.

Neversuited1;
Yeah; Just a situation of being in the right place at the right time.
I went back a week later, playing dumb, and said I found a 'few' good ones, and did they get any more. Seems a lady was cleaning out a desk or something, and brought them in; at least that is what the teller remembers. I've been going back every week, but no more yet. It will take a lot of luck to top that. Happy hunting!

Need some help from you roll searchers. Can not afford to take the big investment to buy a box. I have been working on my JFK for 6 months now begging tellers for JFK they have. I posted this link. https://goccf.com/t/34779

Hey all,

I picked up $220 worth today and found 34 40%. The best (and worst part) was that the scond roll was all 40% silver coins and that really got me going, thinking I had the MOTHER LODE with me. I found another half roll and a few onesies twosies.

Overall, it was a GREAT haul, and I am making great progress towards amassing my hordes of silver Kennedys.

Good luck searching to all!!

The most I have found at one time is $280 in 40 percent halves. Needless to say it got my hooked. My goal is to find an entire box from circulation. Has anyone done this yet?

That is indeed a lofty goal. My goal is to complete a Franklin set from circulation. It might take a while.

I went through an entire bag of $1000 in halves... not a silver to be found. What a pity.
