Okay - learning here.

On ebay I was looking at coin sets. One was up for auction and it was labeled "1968 Silver Proof Set". I finally got it in the mail in it does not say "silver" what-so-ever. Looks just like a proof set from any other year.

Question - did they make a 1968 Silver Proof Set? If so - how can it be identified?

Thanks

I believe the Kennedy half dollar was a 40% Silver Composition in that year set. But none of the other coins have any silver in them.

Hopefully you didn't pay a lot for that set. If that is the normal, set it was issued originally for $2.50 and is approximately worth about $7. Check out the Dime just in case since some were actually made in error without the S mint mark.

The half is about $5.50 in silver right now. The other coins might bring close to $1 each if you sold them separately.
