CCFPress Press Manager United States 1420 Posts	Posted Today 14H 40M ago PCGS - This was meant to be a 40% silver Kennedy half dollar. Instead, a piece of scrap metal made its way into the coining press. Weighing just 16.3 grains, this elliptical-shaped scrap retains partial design details and is PCGS PR63.
