1964 Kennedy 90% Silver Half Dollar Coin 1964 Kennedy 90% Silver Half Dollar Coin Philadelphia Mint Uncirculated This 1964 Kennedy Half Dollar is a premier example of the first year of issue for this iconic series, struck in 90% silver. This specific coin features the classic Gilroy Roberts obverse design and Frank Gasparro reverse, showcasing the presidential seal. As a 1964 issue, it represents the final year the United States minted circulating half dollars with a 90% silver composition, making it a staple for collectors of precious metals and American history. The coin appears to be in uncirculated condition with a sharp strike and original luster, housed in a protective black ring airtight capsule to preserve its surface quality and prevent toning. Being a Philadelphia mint strike, it does not bear a mint mark, further distinguishing it as a foundational piece of the Kennedy collection. 1964 Kennedy 90% Silver Half Dollar Business Strike Philadelphia Mint Condition: This coin appears to be in circulated condition with visible surface abrasions, contact marks, and minor toning or debris typical of handling. The strike is a standard business strike from the Philadelphia Mint, as indicated by the lack of a mint mark on the reverse. The metal content is 90% silver and 10% copper. Historically, the 1964 Kennedy Half Dollar was issued to commemorate President John F. Kennedy following his assassination in 1963 and marks the final year that the denomination was struck in 90% silver for general circulation.
