Well thanks, so I assume there is no extra value for the original wrapping.

Swiss Eagle: Assuming that this is an original bank rapped roll of Uncirculated 1965 Halves, there are people who will pay a premium for bank wrapping that dates back to when the coins were issued. I have no idea what this kind of stuff would bring in Switzerland or elsewhere in Europe. Here in the Dtates original bank wrapped rolls from common dates (and 65 Halves are common) generally will bring $3 to $10 over normal roll price for average BU coins (being MS-60 to MS-63) at coin shows. Can be more if the bank is from a real small town of some significance in the local area your are selling it in. And then also here in the States at a rural auction (town 10,000 population or less and more than one hour away from a 50,000+ city) sometimes this type of stuff brings moon money cause that was the year a person significant in someone's life was born or it was the year they were married. Now it shouldn't of course bring moon money but a rural auction (even big city ones too) can bring out people that decide they want a certain item period and forget the price. Because you live in Switzerland you need to check auction records Europe wide to see what this stuff actually brings over here. Maybe original rolls of bank wrapped American half dollars are scarce over there. President Kennedy getting put on the half dollar in 1964 and then then silver in the half getting cut from 90% down to 40% in 1965 and then eliminated altogether going to clad in 1971 really killed the half dollar as a circulated coin in the States. Today they sit in banks and in fact in from 2002 on the U.S. Mint has only struck enough to fill mint sets and the rolls that they sell (at a premium over face). So it could be that just because people don't see it all that often that they get the idea that it is rare.
