TT83 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 03/19/2021 5:46 pm Hello, I'm new to the Coin World and I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer to on Google. I have a 1973 half dollar with makes on his neck. I know these marks are from the mint but not all had them from what I found. My question is, are these worth anything? Thank you Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2971 Posts	Posted 03/19/2021 6:14 pm this is an awesome place to learn much; I know others will chime on also That mark you might be seeing is the designer of the obverse, Gilroy Roberts, and that is his monogram. In the vast majority of the time, this area would not warrant any premium value. And of course, that 1973 is a common clad coin; you would have to find the ones before 1971 to get 40% silver, and before 1965 for 90% silver.

Just remembered that when someone asked about the initials. Report this Post to the Staff
silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 03/19/2021 10:03 pm TT83, you have to try to post photo of the coin. Could be a good one or a frequently happened, who know?. Do not be shame, it is the end of the week and here the folk like to joke, but never about the coin or the poster. Welcome, you are in the wright place. Report this Post to the Staff
