The first half of the video is talking about 40% Silver Kennedy Half Dollars in general. stacking info is at 6:40 here is my war nickel video 👉🏽 th-cam.com/video/0o1Hn9lEl7M/w-d-xo.html 🔥🐉
Hey Silver Dragon you got a nice collection of half dollars there. I love the Kennedy Half Dollars. I don't see a lot in regular change even the clad half dollars.
One of the great things about those 40%ers is that they are still out there in circulation. Unfortunately with all the coin roll hunters I haven't had much luck finding them since last year but I see many others are finding them still, Happy Hunting and Stacking! GD
Man you may want to do another look at these. They are the best thing going today for spot price value. Other Constitutional silver is like $27-30 over spot. This really confirms your video from 2019. These are good for stacking.
I like 40% Kennedy's. Unfortunately, the low cost to buy means a low price when selling. They don't play a major roll in my stack, but I will pick up a few here and there.
I paused the video so I could break out my Kennedy halves. I have some 64's that are brilliant. It's a great coin. Fun video, I like the 40% but I don't have any. You make some good points for stacking them.
Why don't you go through coins rolls? I wound up buying a box at the bank on a whim yesterday. I've only opened 8 rolls so far because I'm super confused. I've found 2 40% so far and a bunch of weird off cuts that I'm trying to figure out ♥
I’m looking to add some to my stack. I have two Eisenhower dollars I got from Dad. He passed last February. May he rest in peace. 🙏🏽 Spent the few Kennedys at the Dollar Store before I realized what they were. Now I’m researching every coin I find in his room. 😅 You’d think I’d learn my lesson after I spent the Morgan dollar Grandpa gave me when I was 11. Still have the one from Grandma. So I’m studying and watching as many vids as I can to understand these assets. Thanks for the info.
I bought mine to give to grandchildren on their birthdays! I give them the spill on how valuable they are and save them up. It’s something no one else gets them!
I like the 35 and 40 percent silver coins for when I am trying to get the free shipping off Provident or Apmex. Generally I have found is when it comes to these coins the shipping cost is almost equal. So why pay shipping when you can acquire a little bit more silver?
This was a very good video I been trying to figure out how many 40% u needed to make a oz since I started stacking and don't fill bad I only have one 1970d but just cuz of this video if I run across one more I'm sending it to u you the man thanks again for making this video
basshead roc og 12s first of all you are welcome my friend! it’s 7 for the most part 👍🏽 1.035 OZT... secondly that is super awesome my friend I truly appreciate that! 🔥🐉
What's amazing about these 40% halves is the fact I'm still getting them from my local banks from time to time. It's as though people don't know these coins have bullion value.
Hey buddy, stupid question but I bought $1 ikes that are 1976 and found out later that not all of them 90% silver, just the ones that were in mint sets. I this the case for these Kennedy’s also? Or are all of them 1965-1970 40% silver
If you buy them on ebay, the shipping might be high as 7 kennedy 40% halves weigh a lot more than 1 one ounce silver dollars or 3 ninety % silver halves.
I bought $21 of halves from my bank yesterday. 3 of em were 1964 and one was a 1963. About 8 more of them were 40%ers. So I'm guessing I had a really good haul? This is my first time trying this so I'm basically a noob.
Any thoughts on Eisenhower 40% as a kid, I never understood the significance of the Apollo 11 flight emblem on the reverse. As it is the50% anniversary this year and it’s silver, it sure looks interesting
Let me tell you people ! When silver hits $100/once fractional silver is great and this has finite mintage period - secondly , the only silver you would use to buy bread at your local Walmart , you use a Kennedy half before a silver eagle I’ll tell you that / third ... extremely low over spot currently $1.49 apmex at the time of this message - do not sleep on 40%- great size hefty and great value period
I agree with you. Well said. I think 40% silver at $2 over spot as compared to $8 over spot for 90% silver makes the 40% Kennedy halves a lot more attractive. After all, given the finite mintage of Constitutional silver, and that the US mint already can’t keep up with ASE demand, 40% junk silver might one day also carry a hefty premium as it could be the last & only US silver people can get their hands on if/when there’s finally a large rush into precious metals.
@@SilverDragons47 I find it amazing how his death affected the word at that time.He was making decisions of monumental happenings. Being Canadian seeing all the crazy shootings going on down there barely makes for minor mention in the news now. If Kennedy burped or farted the whole world would have paid attention. He got us started to the moon when the science was 1/2 of what it is no and worked for peace amongst other things. I have always wondered what he could have achieved if he had lived ? He is still honored to this day by the coinage still in circulation and collections. PS, I just got a call from my brother saying your letter has arrived and will bring it home tonight after he gets off work. Cool eh !
2 weeks ago i got a $10 roll at the bank, got 4 - 40%ers. Last week hit banks. Got $210 in halves 1 1966 in the bunch Next bank $2.50 Got 3 40%ers in that Next bank nothing. Also hit drive thru at micky D scored a 1943 S quarter. 9 silvers in 2 weeks. Good time
Great info if you can stack these coins can someone later sell them full price silver to pawn shop let’s ay you stacked 100 of 40 % and wanted to sell them in bulk how much cash would I receive from pawn shop
Also don't forget, coins with silver ARE ALLOWED to be melted down, unlike copper pennies, etc... so if you have the time and hardware, you could buy this stuff and refine it down yourself (A LOT easier with the 90% stuff obviously) for poured pieces and save money.
Of course you would make this video now only 4 days after I found a 40% ER and went through hell trying to figure out what it was worth and how many it would take to make an ounce LOL
This video is a couple of years old and dragons you have changed your stance on 40% and that’s fine 👍🏻 I am not concerned with space and enjoy the low premiums , many lcs around here and also a couple online dealers are buying 40% at a really fair price , MME probably paying the best .
Never underestimate numismatic value… I stuck to rounds n junk silver bc I wasn’t speculating even tho I really really liked the 5oz atb coins n they cost way more than when i was looking at them…. If you see the numismatic value it may be worth it, esp if not something trivial like low mint year but something more unique like limited mint of a certain design
I bought a bag of 20 Kennedy halves this weekend. 1965 through 1968. He wanted 3.50 each but I bought the bag of 20 for 2.25 each. I mostly buy bullion bars but I do enjoy buying silver coins.
Silver Dragons bartering is something which was used prior to money (trading of items which you well know) or without the existence of money. You are referring to the use of these coins as money in your example, are you not? If you give someone money with silver in it like in this example, it’s using the silver content to buy something. We all know silver has been used as money throughout history. Plus, I’m not seeing a scenario where we are in complete economic collapse and having to turn to precious metals as currency. If anything, you’re going to be selling those for their silver content when you hit retirement age.
@@stvnbiz So your telling me a rogue group of planchets by passed security and snuck into the mint put themselves through the presses and snuck back out un-noticed? I find that hard to beleive. Planchets can not open doors.
Talking Bullion yeah so know you are not a fan 😂 I still think these are great for bartering and they are also worth slightly more than 2 silver dimes 👍🏽 4.6g and 4.5g respectively 🔥🐉
Silver Dragons No doubt there is value to them and some people enjoy collecting them. I just worry about the silver weight of what I already have and don’t want to add to it anymore than I have to 👍 hopefully some day the gold / silver ratio will drop to a decent level and I can reduce some of the weight that way 🙂 Thanks SD!
I stack my 35% on top of my 40% as my safe weight. More bang for your buck. Lol. Of course you need actual weight to help not just a roll of nickels lol. Stack on.

gold maple thank you my friend! 👍🏽🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47 not everyone knows about an item,i didnt till 2019 and i am almost 50 years old
I just picked up 50 of these bad boys from my silver seller. I'm so happy, he had one from 1970. And they were all at melt value. Heck yeah.
4. You can always find them at your LCS because nobody else wants them.
pseudoty actually 2 of them are usually sold out 😏🔥🐉
5. You can get them TAX FREE on eBay in states that have sales tax.
Love me some 40%
I want them.
Just buy dimes...
I buy them all the time!
Great video once again! I picked up my first roll of 40% Kennedys a couple months ago and definitely plan to get some more soon.
One of the great things about those 40%ers is that they are still out there in circulation. Unfortunately with all the coin roll hunters I haven't had much luck finding them since last year but I see many others are finding them still, Happy Hunting and Stacking! GD

Is there any copper clad visible on the 40% Kennedy silvers? Or is the rim all silver?

I can't seem to find the kennedy denver mint 1776-1976 bicenntenial and it looks like silver. did they mint that one
I have many of these. Was gonna trade them for bullion but I’ll hold on to them now Thanks buddy
Mossman 52 you got it my friend! I would most def hold on to a few 🔥🐉
Should you stack 40 percent silver Eisenhower dollars?
silver dragons could you do a vid on 40% ike dollar? or have you done one already?
thanks for info...
I love these and war nickels because I can regularly fund them under spot.
john messina oh yeah the price is so low I agree!!! 🔥🐉
My favorite coins ! Found a few myself 😃🙏🏻🇺🇸🍀
i have a 1967 kennendy half dollar coin that weighs 11.8 grams. whats that mean?
Picked up some today, found 7 40% and one 90%.
This was a very good video I been trying to figure out how many 40% u needed to make a oz since I started stacking and don't fill bad I only have one 1970d but just cuz of this video if I run across one more I'm sending it to u you the man thanks again for making this video
basshead roc og 12s first of all you are welcome my friend! it’s 7 for the most part 👍🏽 1.035 OZT... secondly that is super awesome my friend I truly appreciate that! 🔥🐉
If you watched the whole video you would know! :P
Very nice video my friend. I'll have to pick up some 40%. I don't actually have any yet.
Budget Bullion Stacker you will have one soon 😂🔥🐉
That is a valid statement my good sir. Thanks again. I will give you a shoutout vid too!!
Budget Bullion Stacker awesome it’s in the mail ✌🏽🔥🐉
Personally 40% is very important in my SHTF stack, I have a goal of $350 face in 40%. That 4.6 grams is a nice fraction.
Sterling Cannabis yeah for SHFT it is an amazing thing to stack at the price!!! 🔥🐉
Yes but in that scenario lead is worth more. Also food.
Great channel. Where do I find the mint mark on the 1967?
No mint mark on 67s
I got 1970D and S proof.. each 1$ at local auction. great deal
Just noticed the little dragon watermark on the bottom-right corner, and I like it! What can I say, I'm easily amused!
Silver Trooper thanks my friend it’s been there for years 😂🔥🐉
I only collect 90%. Have a full bag of them. It's kinda fun to throw them around the room when you're bored lol
Use the reeded edges to slice through the drywall.
I thought I was the only one who did this
Why didn't they make them 15.5 grams 1/2 a oz 999 fine silver?
What's amazing about these 40% halves is the fact I'm still getting them from my local banks from time to time. It's as though people don't know these coins have bullion value.

We'll the elephant in the room is you also have a stack of 60% copper along with your silver..
Mike Miller some people stack massive amounts of copper 🤷🏽♂️🔥🐉

What is 1$ over spot too much?

Jon Roylance those were only made for collectors if i’m not mistaken and there are not a ton out there... they are cool though! 🔥🐉
You Apollo was faked....
Wild that there's like 850 million of these out there. I wonder how many have been melted down.
Just scored a bunch of 40% Kennedy half dollars roll hunting.
I heard somewhere that 35 and 40 silver coins are tax free no matter the you sell. Is it true!

Whoa Baggins you forgot a coin !! The 1976 proof Ike sets have a 40% dollar, half and quarter 😎
Carman 2012 I know but that’s not a kennedy... if you want to go proof sets we can take it up to today and the new ones now have 999 silver 🔥🐉
I like em all. Not just the 40% He was a good man. I remember the day he died and my mother cried.

2 weeks ago i got a $10 roll at the bank,
got 4 - 40%ers.
Last week hit banks.
Got $210 in halves
1 1966 in the bunch
Next bank $2.50
Got 3 40%ers in that
Next bank nothing.
Also hit drive thru at micky D scored a 1943 S quarter.
9 silvers in 2 weeks. Good time
I did coin hurting long ago
Thats where I found around 40 silver coins
Including 8. Kennedy
Great info if you can stack these coins can someone later sell them full price silver to pawn shop let’s ay you stacked 100 of 40 % and wanted to sell them in bulk how much cash would I receive from pawn shop
Don’t go to a pawnshop go to a coin shop. Pawnshops rip you off. 🇮🇱
I got 30 of them got them for face value. My wife works at a major bank. :)
I've been able to pick up scandinavian junk silver (40%) as low as 60% of melt. Gonna make me a treasure chest :)
Also don't forget, coins with silver ARE ALLOWED to be melted down, unlike copper pennies, etc... so if you have the time and hardware, you could buy this stuff and refine it down yourself (A LOT easier with the 90% stuff obviously) for poured pieces and save money.
I just bought six of these at spot from my LCS.
Spot today is $22.62
If the Price is right I love them
Aren't there some bicentennial 76s with 40%?

Bob Wojcikowski that is awesome! free money!!! 🔥🐉
Just a small note, they moved to 40% silver down from 90% because the value of the dollar went down, rather than the price of silver going up.
Silver is silver.
I think there better purchase than war nickels better denomination and for the silver content a better trade. 😊👍
Ehren Krause yeah and they are 60% copper as well and don’t contain manganese like those dirty nickels 😂🔥🐉
We have one here in the philippines.
What about a 1971 Kennedy half dollar?
Not a 40% silver guy myself, 90% or higher. But I suppose 40% halves have a spot in society....

Have you ever heard of a 1971-D Kennedy half dollar weighing 11.3 Gms. being 40% silver?
They do exist, some planchets from 1970 snuck in to the mints, they are very rare and extremely valuable!
@@stvnbiz So your telling me a rogue group of planchets by passed security and snuck into the mint put themselves through the presses and snuck back out un-noticed? I find that hard to beleive. Planchets can not open doors.
You mentioned that they're never faked but are you sure? I've got a 1964 half dollar that looks to be 40% silver.
No way is Kennedy a replacement for Ben Franklin
I just bought a $ 1000 at spot
If 7 40% half dollar is an ounce, and 14 90% dimes is an ounce, then 1 40% half = 2 dimes, couldn’t be simpler for barter.
Not a 40% collector myself. Too much space and weight. I use 90% dimes for my lowest fractional silver.
