1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver

The first year of issue for the Kennedy half — struck just months after the assassination and snapped up by the public almost immediately. This one actually circulated, which makes it a honest, genuine example rather than a pulled-from-the-mint piece. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint Mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar (first year of issue) - Silver Content: 90% silver (pre-1965) - Obverse Designer: Gilroy Roberts; Reverse: Frank Gasparro Circulated with moderate wear and some light surface marks and toning, especially on the obverse — details still clear and readable throughout. A solid 90% silver piece. The 1964 Kennedy half was the last 90% silver half dollar struck for circulation; starting in 1965 the Mint dropped it to 40% silver, and by 1971 to copper-nickel — making this first-year coin the real silver article. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
