I found your blog about 2 months ago and it has been very helpful to me to know the value of my foreign coins and old circulation coins that I knew almost nothing about and always getting a quick response. I have been collecting since I was three when my dad gave me a Sacagewea Gold Dollar as a present. Old circulation coins and foreign coins have always interested me so I am glad there are people out there who collect coins from change that they think are cool too. So far my collection has expanded to gold and silver but still mostly circulation coins. Anyway I just wanted to say thanks for everything and happy hunting!Dr. Mathhttp://mycoinbox.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14411073.post-5582945929128599022011-10-05T01:06:44.245-04:002011-10-05T01:06:44.245-04:00set of 15 half dollars, each a different year rang...<i>set of 15 half dollars, each a different year ranging from 1950 to 1964.

I have a set of 15 half dollars, each a different year ranging from 1950 to 1964. They all have Ben Franklin on them except for the 1964 one that has JFK on it. They are displayed in order in a flat plastic holder with the label "U.S. Half Dollars" & "Proof". Each coin is labeled with its year. Is this called a "proof set"? Any idea of the value for the whole set? Would it be better to take them out of the holder and sell each coin individually?

The gold is considered unrecoverable.<br /><br />As a collectible it is considered damaged.
