1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver

The first year of the Kennedy half dollar, struck just months after the assassination — and in 90% silver, which the series only held through 1964. Both obverse and reverse show strong, sharp detail with good luster still present. Some light contact marks and minor bag scratches visible on the obverse field, as expected for a circulated or lightly handled example, but the high points are well-defined and the coin presents nicely. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark — reverse checked) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar (first year of issue) - Silver content: 90% silver, pre-1965 Circulated to lightly circulated — above-average detail with honest wear; a solid example of the series. The Kennedy half was rushed into production in early 1964, and the Philadelphia Mint struck over 270 million of them that year alone — the public hoarded them almost immediately, pulling them right out of circulation. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
