1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver
The very first year of the Kennedy half dollar, struck just months after the assassination and snapped up by the public almost immediately. This example shows Kennedy's portrait clearly with moderate circulation wear and some light spotting near the chin — honest, circulated condition. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint Mark: not visible on obverse — reverse not pictured; verify in hand - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar (first year of issue) - Silver Content: 90% silver (pre-1965) - Holder: old cardboard 2x2 with staples Circulated with moderate wear; portrait and lettering remain legible. A small spot/mark visible near the chin — see photo. The 1964 Kennedy half was the only 90% silver issue in the series — Congress switched to 40% silver the very next year, making this the one collectors always want. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
