Only Kennedy Half Dollars Struck In 90% Silver

This first-year Kennedy Half Dollar was struck in highly pure 90% fine silver—the only year the coin was struck in 90% silver! Only two mints, Philadelphia and Denver, struck the coin and the ones available in this offer were all struck at the “Mother Mint” in Philadelphia. What’s more, each 1964-P Kennedy Half Dollar available here has been certified and graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as being in near-perfect Proof-69 (PF69) condition, a distinction that means these almost-flawless coins showcase impressive full strikes and indistinguishable imperfections—well above and beyond the quality of the vast majority of coins in the series. Each proof was struck multiple times and, after being struck, they were handled only by workers wearing gloves, ensuring that every coin is top quality.

The Face of America’s Half Dollar

The story of the Kennedy Half Dollar is now numismatic legend: after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in November of 1963, Congress moved quickly to ensure that the United States Mint would be able to create a commemorative half dollar featuring the former president’s profile along with the Presidential Seal. The coins were released in January of the following year—just a few short months after JFK’s passing. The design proved to be so popular that it replaced the existing Benjamin Franklin Half Dollar, and Kennedy has remained the face of the denomination ever since.
