1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver

The first-year Kennedy half — struck just months after the assassination and pulled from circulation almost immediately by a grieving public who wanted to keep them. This one came through in nice shape. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint Mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark — none visible on reverse) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar (first year of issue) - Silver Content: 90% silver (pre-1965) Circulated with light wear; details remain sharp on both the portrait and the Presidential Seal reverse. Good luster, no visible damage or cleaning. The 1964 Kennedy half was the last 90% silver half dollar ever struck for circulation — starting in 1965, the Mint dropped the silver content to 40%, and by 1971 halves went clad entirely. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
