It is 90% silver (.36 ozt). It is worth a buck or two over melt, maybe more to the right person. It is personally one of my favorite coins. Just a cool looking coin.

You did great! They currently trade at about melt which is around $12 each. I hoard them! :mrgreen:
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more

I just sold one of those a couple days ago to TXBullion. Spot + ship. Great buy at $5. Hope you got all they had.

The 1982 Washington, 1993 Bill of Rights and the 1998 Kennedy were the only Modern Commemorative halves made in 90% silver, the rest are CuNi clad.

Um, the 1998 Kennedy was a Dollar Coin, not a Half.

The 1998-S John F Kennedy matte finish proof from the commemorative set is a half dollar.
