huntercav New Member United States 44 Posts	Posted 04/26/2010 6:37 pm I just received in the mail a roll of junk silver which included a '64 Kennedy half dollar. This coin is very distinctly golden in tone and in very nice condition. I checked my Red Book but cant seem to identify it. Any assistance is appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

Americanamafia Pillar of the Community United States 672 Posts	Posted 04/26/2010 6:45 pm was it plated? I found one once that had gold plating, see if it is flaking off arround the edges. If not it could be just odd natural/artificial toning Report this Post to the Staff

fistfulladirt Pillar of the Community United States 4333 Posts	Posted 04/26/2010 6:55 pm I have seen lots of gold toned, plated, even painted halves. The same with dimes. Anodized, chrome plated, etc....anything colored would tend to be produced post mint I'm pretty sure. When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72 Report this Post to the Staff
