1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver

The first year of issue — struck just months after JFK's assassination and hoarded by the public almost immediately. This one made it through in nice shape. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint Mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar (first year) - Silver Content: 90% silver (pre-1965) - Obverse: Sharp portrait, strong hair detail, minimal wear - Reverse: Presidential seal well-defined, good eagle detail throughout Circulated with light wear — better than average for a coin that saw this much excitement. A solid 90% silver piece from a landmark year in American coinage. The 1964 Kennedy half was the last 90% silver half dollar struck for circulation; Congress switched to a 40% silver clad composition the very next year. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
