Frequently Asked Questions How many coins is $10 face value? 20 × 1964 Kennedy halves — approximately 7.234 troy oz of pure silver. Why 1964 only? It’s the single year Kennedy halves were 90% silver — 1965–1970 dropped to 40%, 1971+ contain none. Is it IRA eligible? No — circulated 90% alloy doesn’t meet IRS purity standards; see Silver Eagles for IRA silver. Which mint marks will I receive? A random mix of 1964-P and 1964-D. What condition are the coins? Average circulated (VF–XF) with full dates and designs — not BU, never culls. How is the price set? About 7.234 × the live silver spot price plus a low junk-silver premium. Kennedy vs Franklin rolls?
