So for the past month I've been trying to buy 2000, 1967 silver halfs fom a guy looking to sell. Finally we struck a deal today for just under 10$ a coin and I am now the proud owner of 2000 of these beauties.
Now Lets hope silver can keep it's pace!

At $46 an ounce for silver the 40% halves you are referring to are only worth in silver $6.81 each. I hope you have made a deal for "64" halves, not "67".

Not to panic you but I know for a fact that "some" 1967 Silver coinage are minted with 50% silver. http://www.colonialacres.com/cgi-bi...crapsilver67I tried to stay away from the 1967 coins because there's no way to tell, but if those what you brought were 80% I'm happy for you :D

1967 silver Canadian coins have the following composition:
All 1967 1$ and 50 cents are composed of 80% silver.
For the first half of 1967 both 10 cent and 25 cents coins were 80% silver and in the latter half of 1967 both 10 cent and 25 cent coins were 50% silver.
