(4) 1971-D Kennedy Half Dollar Error Coin Silver Planchet

I have several 71s. (4) of them are minted with the silver planchet. I’m attaching weight as well.

Can you post pics of the rim?

 

Break it to me gently lol. No I have several 71s and these 4 stood out and of course the sound and then weight. Weighed others as well just to make sure.

 

Putting them in album.

 

From your pic, it looks like copper clad. To be positive, take them to your LCS and have an analyzer test them. Or better if they have a XRF gun.

 

Wish I could let you hear them. But I will get them checked further. Ty!

 

The answer is no. Any that were in circulation have long been pulled out of circulation. Like finding two 1943 copper cents.

 

They look like clad to me too.

 

These have sat in a spot for over 20 plus years. Stupid question, but the weight and of course the sound and texture of silver. They were all my dad’s so keepers! Thank you.

 

Thank you!

 

I know these are lol!

 

Yes, those are silver. Pretty good condition too IMO!

 

Thank you!

Yes… I have read up on those. The 71s also read about… I just went by weight etc. thanks for your help!

 

Thanks again. These 4 have or had me fooled comparing to others I have. But they are carded and put in my album. These were my dad’s. Just about all that I post and yes I post some, well some that make y’all go what the heck? Ty!
