Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 09/09/2010 5:58 pm Weighed up a bunch of 40% and 90% kenns. 40% 11.3 to 11.7 range 90% 12.3 to 12.6 range Your coin is in the normal weight range. Might not be a bad idea to check all 65's If you find one that weighs 12 or over it may be a mule. Possible ? Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 09/09/2010 11:50 pm I believe at least one 1965 quarter in silver has surfaced. No reason why a 90% half wouldn't surface eventually. It would not be a mule, though. It would be a wrong planchet strike. A mule is a coin struck with obverse or reverse designs intended for other coins...like the 2000 Sac dollars with the Washington quarter obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 10:54 am Thanks for clearing that up. Again, an article that I had read when I was young, referred to the 1965 silver dime as a mule so that had always stuck in my head over the years. So just some more incorrect info from years gone by.
