1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver
The first-year Kennedy half dollar — struck just months after the assassination and snapped up by the public almost as fast as they were minted. Both sides are shown and the details are sharp throughout, with good luster remaining and only light handling marks. No mint mark visible on the reverse, indicating Philadelphia. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint: Philadelphia (no mint mark) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar (first year of issue) - Silver Content: 90% silver (pre-1965) Circulated with light wear — strong details, nice original luster, no major hits or cleaning apparent. The 1964 Kennedy half was the only year the series was struck in 90% silver; Congress switched to 40% silver the very next year as the public hoarded the coins faster than the Mint could produce them. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
