I found these in a shop the owner stopped collecting coins 20 years ago and had them sitting in a safe. I asked if they carried any coins and he said he had these for a long time now and sold me a bunch for coin value. Now I need to know what they are.

I'd say AU-58 for the first coin, and MS-63 for the second. Not worth a whole lot above melt until you get to 65+

You paid 50 cents for those coins. The 1964 Kennedy's are 90% Silver.
They should weigh 12.5grams which would be about 11.25 grams of silver, which is about a bit less than 1/3rd of a Troy Oz.
At todays rate of $17.58 Troy oz, you have about $5.70 - 5.80 in silver value for each coin...
If you tried to buy them, $8 - $10 would be a fair price to pay...
You got a very good deal from the shop owner...

Welcome to the club...

Other issues aside, I like the toning. Nice pick up!

Some people like toning, some don't... It's all about eye appeal to the buyer...
