The Kennedy half dollar is an ideal size (well, good anyway) for most manipulators. However, if you are doing the classic miser's dream, palming coins (ask your dealer) are thinner which increases the number that you can handle.

Hi Ken,
You usually pay a small premium, however if you check at your local coin dealer you should have no trouble finding US Kennedy halves. Obviously, the coin dealers are interested in the mint-condition quality of coins as collector items and they will charge you accordingly. I shouldn't think that plain old Kennedy halves would be too terribly expensive though. If they don't have any in stock, ask if they can source them for you. I'm sure that they'd have import sources that could bring them into the U.K. for you. Cheers! |

Hey thanks for the heads up! I thought the mint stopped making half dollars a long time ago.

Most UK magic dealers sell them for approximately £1.00-1.50.
