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 public that wanted to hold onto them. Both sides photograph beautifully here. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint Mark: none visible on reverse — Philadelphia (no mint mark) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar, first year of issue - Silver Content: 90% silver (pre-1965) - Designer initials "FG" (Frank Gasparro) visible on reverse below eagle Light contact marks and minor hairlines consistent with brief circulation; luster still present on both sides. A solid, attractive example of this iconic coin. Fun fact: The 1964 Kennedy half was rushed into production just three months after JFK's assassination — the Mint worked around the clock and struck over 400 million that year, yet hoarding was so widespread that the coins virtually vanished from circulation overnight. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
