Question RE: Post 2001 Half Dollars ("not meant for circulation")

[monkeys uncle]

Anyone pulling and 'holding onto' these? I've come across (4) and held onto them...but, not certain whether they have value > $0.50? Hoping someone can educate yours trully as to the value of doing so. HH & stack em high!

Hey monkeys uncle, I personally toss them back but have a buyer right now who wants certain dates and is willing to pay about $0.75 each for them. once I fulfill their request, I will begin tossing them back into the wild again. They really don't have much if any value over face value. If you want to keep them and don't have to worry about tying up money, why not hold onto them? Do what makes you happy

See ifyou can find a buyer- or like Buf said id you can affordto hold up the cash with them then holdem for a while- I collected 2of each set and have thrown all the rest back- actually havent seen any for a long time so i think theres another hunter in my area keeping them all

Hold onto them... That way I won't have to look through them!

I haven't done much volume yet, but I can already see how keeping every NIFC will tie up a lot of capital that could be better used to buy more boxes.

I find 10+ in every box I search... weird how in different parts of the country, the NIFC finds are different.

I found a roll of 2013 halves and I saved the best one but that's about it

[fish on!]

I think you guys should keep them all. They are going to be worth tons of money one day.

 

[superneo123]

I kept all that I found in 8 months of hunting halfs, I have tried to sell a few with no luck so far. Here is a vid that I did of what I found in 8 months of hunting halfs.

I always throw them back... like BB said, I see 10+ a box, so its not a biggie to find them. I keep a pair of 2014's to show naggy tellers that they are minted every year and its not a "special order" but it rarely works even then...

 

[mAGma]

I had a bag last year that was hald full of NIFCs. Sold them all on ebay and made about 20 bucks on 600 dollars worth of halfs. Ive heard that if you put them in runs and smaller quantities they occasionally sell for a bit...NOT worth it in my opinion

 

[foofighters]

I'm keeping enough to fill out one set.

Although I have seven or eight rolls that are still in their mint rolls. Dont really know why I am saving them and one of these days I am going to take them to my LCS and buy silver with them.
