Numismatically Challenged

[Buster]

Going through some loose change, I noticed a few quarters dated 1965-68. The rims appear to have about half silver and half clad, and I got to wondering if they may be 40 percent silver like the Kennedy halves of similar dates. Are these late '60s coins worth saving?

Sorry,

Only the halves where 40% from 1965 to 1968.

In the early days of clad production that was fairly common.....

The only 40% silver quarters minted were the 1976 Bicentennial quarters in the special mint and proof sets which contained the quarter, half, and Ike dollar. I've already have found many of the halves in circulation so it stands to reason there should be some quarters out there also. I believe they minted 11,000,000 or more of these coins. The 40% halves were minted for circulation from 1965 to 1970 with almost 1 billion minted.

This sort of thing is going to get a lot worse and a lot of people are going to fall for it. Consider yourself a step up on this. Don't ever be afraid to ask these questions here at GIM.
