Nice Score Pancake, My skunk streak continues yet again, 4 boxes yesterday and today my bank did't order, one would think after 5 years of visiting that bank every Thursday to pickup halves they would not forget. Sometimes makes me wonder. They did have one box, Skunked no silver, the box contained 163 NIFC coins. 07D-9, 07P-9, 08D-39, 08P-35, 10D-17, 10P-12, 11D-19,and 11P-23. These all are GEM, Many will go BU. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend, May you all find the silver you seek. Until Next week.

Hit a few banks on Thursday. One bank had 8 40% another had 3 40% and another had 1 40%. A pretty good day 12 40% total.

Went through 2 boxes this weekend of Halves. One box had (1) '64. Second box was awesome. Highlights included:
- 1964
- 1965
- 1967
- 1978 Impaired Proof
- 2015 Impaired Proof
- 1986 S Proof Commemorative

On the 2015 S Proof, I thought it was silver at first due to the edge. The second image is of the edge. It is pretty worn, but could it be silver? I see they do produce some silver proofs? Thoughts?

What is the weight? A silver proof will come in at 12.5 grams

That 2015 S proof looks like it's silver. I would wait for other members to comment on it though before making a conclusion.

Jvandy and Tencentpenny

As an update on the 2015 S Proof possibly being silver. I weighed it and it came in at 12.45. So I would say it is silver, right? I think that box must have been a collection dump. Thanks all for the help.

Should be. 12.5 grams is the norm for silver. 11.35 grams for clad.

You can also try the tissue test for additional evidence.

Yes that 2015 should be silver. Its well within the margin of error. Congrats! (Fun fact: In 2015 the U.S. mint restored the half dollar back to its original 1964 obverse and reverse!)
