Silver/Gold Kennedy 1/2's Danbury Mint
I'm sure some of you guys get offers in the mail from the Danbury Mint. This is an atractive offer; just wondered what you serious coin collectors thought. It describes Kennedy 1/2's from 64' to date as .999 silver with obverse in 24K gold. Approx. 36 coins x $22.00ea. Ruffly $900 over time in a monthly setting. Is this an attractive buy. I've almost completed a Kennedy set from Ward and Willabee. Just curious. Don

Re: Silver/Gold Kennedy 1/2's Danbury Mint
I wouldn't pay $22 for a non-silver coin with a thin plating of gold. I think a 10mm thick plating, of 24kt gold, is worth .60-.70 cents. I know the 64' is 90% and the 65'-70' are 40% silver, but the rest are not silver until 1992, and that's only the proofs.
I just wouldn't do it, but that's me.
