I have a handful of the 40% silver halves (1965-1970) in my chest of drawers that I've gotten in change over the years. Nowadays, it's extremely rare to get a 90% silver half dollar (or anything else) in change. After 1964, folks started reserving the 90% coins (i.e., stopped spending them), but few knew that the post 1964 half dollars still had 40% silver till 1971, at which point silver was completely removed from all our coinage. As a result, they are still occasionally seen in change even today.

Had a cousin 20 years ago that would have a route he'd take to several banks. He'd exchange cash for 50 cent pieces then sort out the silver ones. I don't think it paid for his gas.

Vending machines mostly use quarters. ???, you mean venting machines? Wait … you mean a respirator machine? Yes, that's the one. We had a special model we put liberals on that you had to put quarters in the keep it running. Cheap bastard family members would watch grandma die instead of feeding it coins.
