1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver
The first year of the Kennedy half dollar — struck just months after the assassination and snapped up by the public almost immediately. Both sides photograph beautifully here, with sharp portrait detail and a crisp presidential seal on the reverse. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark — reverse confirms none present) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar, first year of issue - Silver content: 90% silver (pre-1965) Light contact marks and a few hairlines visible under close inspection, but overall a bright, lustrous example with strong detail — above average for a circulated 1964. The 1964 Kennedy half was the only 90% silver issue in the series; Congress switched to 40% silver the very next year as the public hoarded every silver coin they could find. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
