Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 07/29/2025 8:51 pm I personally would not, but it should depend on your collecting goals (and available space). Can you share a little bit about what you want from these coins?

jbuck Moderator United States 187539 Posts	Posted 07/30/2025 09:43 am Half Dollars are no longer de facto NIFC for the past few years. Just keep a few of the best examples, then dump or spend the rest.

I've been doing my part...any purchase under 7 dollars is paid with all halves. Many clerks have said" wow I haven't seen one of those in awhile" Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18630 Posts	Posted 11/14/2025 11:09 am would not keep the roll just the best. if its not MS67 or 68 potential then its not worth keeping. post any you think reach that number on the grading forum and get some assessments. keep in mind that the chances finding a 68 is pretty much like finding a key coin in circulation and even the smallest flaws and marks would keep it out of the 67 box. they are out there but fairly rare.
