Hello I am new to this and I am looking for comments on what to do with these. I believe them to be Kennedy and Liberty half dollars. With one being from the Philippines. I am new to this and not really looking to collect so to speak. All comments are appreciated. The number after the dash is the quantity. Thank you. 1918 fifty centavos 1941 1942-2 1943 1945 1964 1966-2 1967-4 1968-2 1969-3 1971-11 1972-7 1973-5 1974-10 1976-10 1977-3 1979-5 1980-2 1981 1982 1984 1997 *** Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. ***

Seems you have some Liberty Walking Halfs in airtites.. may be worth something. Can you provide more detailed pictures of your coins?
and welcome

The five Walking Liberty half dollars have the most potential for value. If you can provide close up photos of those five coins, front and back, it would help us give you a more accurate value.

If I need to do each individually I can. I thought I would try all six coins together first. From the couple of post I have made here I have learned a little already and thank you.

I know it's kind of a pain but individual pictures of each coin would help us as much as you.
Welcome to the Forum! You've come to a great place to share and learn.

All 6 appear to have been circulated to one degree or another. But the silver value alone is worth right at $6 each.

Many of them appear to have issues as well.

Your Kennedy halves from 1966-1969 are 40% silver .The 1964 is 90% silver .

Look up and purchase what is called the Red Book by Whitman Publishing. Then look up and buy an Album or two for putting the coins in. Then start being a coin collector. It is a hobby so ignor constant references to value, how much, melt value, where to sell, etc. You will be amazed at how much fun it is to try to fill an Album.

I agree with Just Carl, buy yourself a Kennedy album, and start putting them in... Then see if you can trade or sell your doubles for the dates you don't have yet. You can find the albums online at a coin supply store. I prefer Dansco, they have coin safe plastic inserts so you can see both sides and not worry about touching the coins, especially if you are showing them to a friend or relative. They also make slip covers that are treated to protected the coins. - it's a natural human thing to want to touch something, and you don't want oily bare fingers touching your coins. If you want to spend a few extra bucks, you can also buy very nice looking wood or metal boxes that have velvet liners with holes to hold your airtites. You just have to get the right size trays for the coins you will put in there. Have fun, I do!

 To CCF! I would save them and put them in a Whitman album.
