When I was buying half dollar rolls at the bank, I found 2 1986 Liberty/Ellis island half dollars and I was wondering what there composition was. Both of the ones I found have an S mint mark and look to be UC, thats why you want customer wrap's

have any one else found commemoratives in rolls

Thanks,
Bryan

That particular half dollar commem is CuNi clad as are most modern commem halves. The only two I can think of that are silver would be the 1982 Washington and 1993 Bill of Rights.

edit: perfect, thanks for the correction GoldRush
