Correct, reduced to .500 in 1967 for the dime and the quater(you get
both .800 and .500 for that year), then in 1968 switched from silver
alloy to Nickle alloy, but there are some .500 in 1968. The 50c and $1
are all silver in 1967 and Nickle in 1968, or more accurately, those
DATED 1968!

For regular circulation coins
I think it was 1968.

Didn't they start to gradually reduce the silver content around the mid
1960s?
