1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver

The first year of issue for the Kennedy half — struck just months after the assassination and snapped up by the public almost immediately. This one shows well, with sharp details on both the obverse portrait and the Presidential Seal reverse. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar, first year of issue - Composition: 90% silver, 10% copper - Reverse: Presidential Coat of Arms, designer's initials "GR" (Gilroy Roberts, obverse) and "FC" (Frank Gasparro, reverse) visible Circulated with light wear and some minor surface marks — still a bright, attractive example with good luster remaining. The 1964 Kennedy half was the last 90% silver half dollar ever struck for circulation; starting in 1965, the Mint dropped the silver content to 40%, making this the final year of the real thing. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
