I just got another 2005 S. This one looks to contain silver. Did they make 40% silver proofs for that year? I have two 2005S. Th other is not silver and weighs 11.4 grams. The one I think is 40% weighs 12.8 grams. Im taking a picture with my phone but it takes forever to get it in my inbox so I can post it. I'll post it asap.

If its silver its 90% so should be no hint of copper on the edge. HH Mark
 
According to my Certificate of Authenticity on the 2005 Silver Proof Set, the Half Dollar is 90% Silver and 10% Copper with a standard weight of 12.500 grams. Sounds like you scored a good one.
 
Thanks guy. Need to calibrate my scales lol. It looks and sounds silver. Very pretty coin either way.
 
90% Congrats. A hard one to come by.
