When they change to a new currency, they will probably exchange them for the new. A very tiny amount of our money is actually printed and minted. It's extremely hard and expensive to mint all new coins, so they may even keep them.
Who knows maybe the coins will be worth a few bucks in my kids years to come . What’s crazy is I have a couple thousand dollars in arm half dollars you still pay $.50 at the bank for them there’s people selling them all over the Internet for six bucks apiece nine bucks apiece 20 bucks apiece different years I have hundreds of every year
65 to 74 I have thousands of them . I bought cases and went through them over the past couple years. I found a couple that were silver , before 64 , I was shocked. That got me excited so I bought a few more cases. I usually find 1 per case but not all the time , but even finding 1 is hard to believe . I wash them good , gosh they are filthy , black water , then I stack them in cylinders by years . I didn’t know 1971 was 40 percent silver .. 71 is one of the most common years that I found , 1776-1976 are the other common years . Now that I know that they are 40 percent I think I’ll go buy a few more cases lol . I bought a couple thousand dollars of the dollar coins too. The cases come with Susan b Anthony , the presidents and Sacagawea .. there are many different kinds !

But I'm just guessing.

Check the half dollers for 90% and 40% silver.
1964 and earlier is 90% silver and 65-74 is 40% silver.
I've been thinking of buying some and checking them myself. It's mainly the 1/2 dollers that are worth checking.

Here is a good link. The 71 need to be Eisenhower 1/2 dollers.
