muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7187 Posts	Posted 04/25/2013 10:53 am Not sure what "asw" means but 40% Kennedy halves were produced from 1965 to 1970 and some were also made for mint and proof sets with the date of 1776-1976. There are also copper nickle versions with the dual date too. All US halves dated 1964 and before are 90% There are also proof versions of Kennedy halves from 1992 to date all with "s" mint marks but there are also copper nickle versions of the same dates. Other than that there are two commemorative halves that are 90%, the 1982 George Washington and the 1983 Bill of rights halves. Report this Post to the Staff
argentum Pillar of the Community United States 1195 Posts	Posted 04/25/2013 11:04 am ASW = actual silver weight. Dirt simple formula for calculating it yourself: Mass of object * stated or known purity = ASW. Raymo's site is a good one. Report this Post to the Staff
Bm0ney Pillar of the Community Canada 1005 Posts	Posted 04/25/2013 11:08 am Thank you both. Great!, so... Up to 1964 are 90% 0.3618 oz. ASW 1965 to 1970 are 40% 0.148 oz. ASW The asw is the troy ounces of pure silver in each coin. Edited by Bm0ney 04/25/2013 11:25 am Report this Post to the Staff
