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. This one came back around eventually. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar (first year of issue) - Silver content: 90% silver (pre-1965) - Reverse: Presidential Seal design by Frank Gasparro Sharp details on both obverse and reverse with bright luster still showing; light contact marks consistent with circulation but no heavy wear. A nice example of the series. The 1964 Kennedy half was the last 90% silver half dollar the U.S. Mint ever struck — starting in 1965, the composition dropped to 40% silver, and by 1971 it was copper-nickel clad all the way. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
