ratio411 Pillar of the Community United States 1208 Posts	Posted 08/04/2008 8:35 pm I just picked this up for 13 bux... I didn't really need it, or particularly want it, but the bid was so low, and no one bothered to outbid me... So I got it. I know it's silver, and the PCGS fees probably cost more than the 13 bux... So did I do okay? I don't know anything about this issue... It's one of those "I bid on this cuz it was cheap, but I didn't seriously expect to win" type of auction wins.

The only modern commemorative half dollars minted in 90% silver are the 1982 Washington and 1993 Bill of Rights, the rest are Cu-Ni clad. Greysheet, aka The Coin Dealer Newsletter Also, original issue price was $10.75 and a mintage of 57,122 Edited by biokemist6 08/04/2008 9:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff
ratio411 Pillar of the Community United States 1208 Posts	Posted 08/04/2008 9:50 pm krap... I don't know where I got the idea it was silver, but that is what was on my mind when I bid. I wouldn't have bid knowing it was clad. Looks like it will be making another showing on ebay. Report this Post to the Staff
Steamwalker Valued Member United States 201 Posts	Posted 08/04/2008 10:09 pm Well, it's a fairly attractive coin in excellent condition with a low mintage in comparison to non-commemoratives. If I collected modern commemoratives, I would be pleased with the price paid. Report this Post to the Staff

And just because it isn't silver, shouldn't take away from this coin or possibly a potential collection of "moderns" someday.
