Hello everyone,

Just recently started collecting coins and came across these I had in a few rolls from a few years ago

Up next will be a few Franklins :)

The three 1967 are 40% silver, and the Franklin half dollars are 90% silver.

The Kennedy's are nice but, I'm looking forward to the Franklins!

Are these coming from roll-hunting?

Keep us posted!

Actually I've had these for a few years. Picked them up at a bank but never got around to opening them until now that I'm in the process of moving I found them again. :)

Thanks everyone, would any of the franklins be worth grading? A few of them look pretty nice.

Based on the photos, I'd say no. It's probably better / easier / more economical to buy ones that are already graded than take the risk yourself.

It seems like you were a "silver stacker" before you knew it.

Maybe pick out the best Kennedy and Franklin and post pics in the Modern Grading forum (in separate topics) to see what others think.

Also, with the Franklins, look out for "full bell lines" (FBL or FL). If they are there, value will increase.
