I understand that dimes , quaters, and halfs were made with 90% silver until 1964 but when did they stop making these coins with 40% silver? Thank You,

Nope just 1942-1945 and only with the mintmark over the dome.  |
My hobby: collecting real money 1 copper cent or nickel at a time.

Yep.

Live free or die.
Plain and simple.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

There were some 1976-S halves and 1976-S quarters that are 40% silver too. Occasionally, you find the 40% 1976-S half looking through half rolls. |
