1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver

The first year of issue for the Kennedy half dollar, and still the most beloved — struck just months after the assassination and snapped up by the public almost immediately. Both obverse and reverse show sharp, well-defined details with only the lightest handling marks. A genuinely nice example of this first-year coin. 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) Circulated with minimal wear — details crisp, luster largely intact, a few light contact marks consistent with a coin that saw brief circulation or careful handling. The 1964 Kennedy half was the last 90% silver half dollar ever 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.
