2002 or later P mint are not intended for circulation NIFC. Also any S mints which are proofs, some are clad some are silver, both cary a premium though.

Don't for get the 1970, it is 40% and carries a numismatic premium.

I've been looking for anything pre-1970 and post 2005. Is that a good rule of thumb to catch 99.9% of the 40%/90% and very rare, later dates?

How much are post 2005 worth? Is there much of a market for them?

Not sure but I thought anything after 2003 wasn't meant for circulation. So I guess I should have said post-2003 and not 2005. But I haven't looked into it really. And haven't come across anything later than 2001.

Hold on to anything clad.

Send the shiny-edged ones to me. They are old and not worth much.

You might want to check for errors (mis-strikes, etc.)if your volume is small enough.

I picked up a couple rolls awhile back that were UNC '02 and up. I also got a 79 proof and a 40%. The mintages really go down on the newer JFKs

Are you throwing that out?

Not trying to be a jerk, but please turn the CAPSLOCK off. Posts look trashy when it's all in CAPSLOCKS. Thanks.

I have seen a fair share of newer halves in my last couple of boxes. I don't collect NIFC's , but they looked a bit different than the regular halves.

As for what to look for, I heard at least some 1976's were clad 40%. Can anyone confirm this?

Yes, some 76's are 40% silvers ("s" mint). I've found about 3 or 4 in the past year or so.
