Going thru half dollar rolls last night I found a Kennedy Bi-centennial half that appears to be silver. No clad line on the edge and the color looks like silver after setting for a period of time. Is there any chance of this?

Might be proof. Be neat if it is, awesome to find proof coins on circulation.
