It doesn't. 1970 was the last year the US mint made half dollars for circulation in silver (halves dated 1964 and prior are 90% silver, those dated 1965-1970 are 40% silver). No 1971 half dollars are struck in silver.

How do you know if your rings are real gold or silver?
(This applies to silver, I'm not sure about gold.) If you are wearing a fake silver ring, after wearing it for about half an hour you will see that your finger where the ring has been has gone a bit green. It will eventually go back to it's original colour though. Also if you go to any shop which sells real gold and silver they should be able to tell you if it is real or not.

How do you know if a 1972 silver dollar is really silver?
It's easy to tell 1972 Ike dollars apart. If it has no mint mark or a D above the date, it's made of copper-nickel and is worth face value to maybe $1.25 in circulated condition. If it has an S mint mark it's made of 40% clad silver and might be worth about $7, mostly for its silver content. Some other years saw more varieties, but even so they're still simple to tell apart. The silver issues are lighter in color than the copper-nickel ones. Also the edge on a copper-nickel dollar will plainly show its copper color, while the edge on a silver-clad coin will be somewhat grayish.

What is the value of a 1964 halfsilver dollar?
Depends on what you want to know for. Some collectors will pay more than the $15 you could get for the silver content. Technically the silver dollar is worth about $30, but not many will pay that much. Might be an anomaly on it somewhere which raises value. If you're talking about the Kennedy half dollar, it is worth half as much for the silver value, maybe 3/4ths of the silver dollar. Not worth much to a collector.
