THIS IS ALLOT OF SILVER HALFS!!! YOU HAVE TO LOOK!!!

[DDEXPII]

OK now that I have you here, some of you have hit a dry spell but don't think it is the end of CRH for half's, and this is way. Someone of you may think I have too much time on my hands and the fact is I do. In the last 91 years there was allot of half's mintage from 1916 the first year of the the Liberty Walking to 1947 the last year there was 473,706,640 Liberty minted.
Now from 1948 to 1963 there was 309,027,439 Benjamin Franklin minted. In the year 1964 the last of the good years the JFK came out with 433,460,212 in 1964 alone then from 1965 to 1970 the 40%res years there was 1,032,376,953. So lets go back in all there was 1,216,194,291 90%Er's minted from 1916 to 1964 +or- 25,000 and 1,032,376,953 49%Er's from 1965 to 1970. I don't think we will see the end of CRH in a very long time.

Thank for you time and let me know what you think DDE :P

At today's prices, the silver value for those coins is as follows:

90%'s -$5,846,171,162.14

40%'s -$2,029,140,764.94

That's alot of money

Dude, why are you bringing up posts from 2007?

Your not counting the countless coins that were deemed unfit for circulation,melting by 3rd party companies,or simply lost


Slashing those figures by 3/4ths is more like it.

Assuming that those reductions are true, that would still mean 400 million 90's and 300 million 40's or 700 million (needles)to find in the many billions (haystacks) minted since 1970.

Just to put these numbers in perspective as they are too large to comprehend. If as Kevin stated there is only 1/4 of the silver still in the wild ... that is still 3,800 TONS of 40's and 5,500 TONS of 90's out there to find.

I would be willing to wager a dollar that a 1,000,000 silver half dollars have not been found by everyone on this website that has CRHed.

Even if it that many have been found by CRHer's that would still only be .05% of the silver halves that were made.

We just have to figure out a way to get to the stored ones.

Keep looking.

My last 5 boxes have produced no less than 4 keepers. These came from various banks. I think I may be one of the few in my region.
