There are approximately 2.8 billion Kennedy half dollars minted between 1971 and 2001. Thats 2.8 million boxes if they were all boxed simultaneously. I have searched approximately 430 boxes since last October. That accounts for 1.53x10 to -4% of all boxes in theoretical existence.

Of course this is assuming that there is a constant inventory of boxes of halves, which I know is not the case.

Now, lets assume a large volume searcher has searched 1200 boxes/year for 4-5 years. Thats .002% (two thousandths of ONE percent) of all boxes in theoretical existence.

if you figured this out then i say you have way too much time on your hands. lol.
 

If i had my way they would melt all the clad and leave the silver for us. Or they would paint them orange so we could sort them fast.
 

Looks like you need to pick up the volume Tim, there are a few boxes out there you have not searched. lol
