biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 07/19/2016 1:51 pm There were only ~~three~~ four sets from the 1970s that contained any silver content- 1970 Mint and Proof Sets(half dollar 40% silver clad) and the 1976 3 coin Bicentennial Mint and Proof Sets(also 40% silver clad). 40% silver Ikes were also sold individually but were not part of the annual sets.

ace_ftw Pillar of the Community Canada 1747 Posts	Posted 07/19/2016 4:20 pm the 65 - 70 half dollar is 40% silver, so yes those mint sets have silver as well. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 187702 Posts	Posted 07/19/2016 5:15 pm And just to be clear, there were only special mint sets in 1965, 1966, and 1967. No proof sets those years.
