Tpatna Pillar of the Community United States 1626 Posts	Posted 09/28/2006 09:01 am Hello all, My buddy wants me to put together a U.S Birth year set for his fathers Birthday. His father was born in 1924. My dilemma is - in 1924 they did not mint a half dollar and every set holder I find is either the Dollar, Half Dollar, Quarter, Dime, Nickle, and Penny - or - Half Dollar, Quarter, Dime, Nickle, and Penny. So the question is....what should I do with that darn empty window for the half dollar? Any suggestions? Tim Report this Post to the Staff

OldDan Pillar of the Community United States 1203 Posts	Posted 09/28/2006 09:08 am There was a very nice Commemorative Silver half dollar minted in 1924 depicting the Huguenots settling in what is now New York in 1624. One side has a three masted vessel sailing into harbor. It should fit in just right and it's a 1924, just like the rest of them. Report this Post to the Staff
