About this product

Product Information

<h2>Jaime Hernandez</h2><p>The assassination of former President John F. Kennedy took place on November 22, 1963 and many grieving&nbsp;individuals wanted to commemorate the late President. Shortly thereafter, it was decided that Kennedy&rsquo;s portrait would be placed on a U.S. coin.</p><p>Initially, Kennedy&rsquo;s portrait was going to be placed on a U.S. quarter. However, Mrs. Kennedy requested for George Washington&rsquo;s portrait to remain on the quarter dollar instead of her late husbands. The second best choice was the Half Dollar coin. At the time, the Franklin Half Dollar coins were still being issued and the&nbsp;current law required that a coins design should remain on a circulating coin for at least 25 years before it can be changed.</p><p>Consequently, Congress had to act quickly and change the law for the Half Dollar coins. In the end, the Kennedy Half Dollar was approved, therefore, ending the Franklin Half Dollar series at least four years earlier than expected. By February 1964, the Philadelphia Mint struck its first Kennedy Half Dollars for circulation while the Denver Mint&nbsp;had already struck&nbsp;them just a week earlier.</p><div>The 1964 Kennedy Half Dollar were composed of 90% silver, therefore making them a one year type. The following years, or from 1965 to 1970 circulation strike Kennedy Half Dollars were struck in 40% silver.</div>

    The coin I received appears to have been harshly cleaned/polished , the photos that I received did not accurately depict this . The seller did admit that coins are not his forte. I should have taking my time and asked more questions and asked to see additional photo befor commiting to bid on this item. The seller, to his credit did offer to try and try to make me a deal on a future purchase. I have attached photos of the coin in question, the first being mine, the second his.

    I recently joined eBay,with a much different conception what eBay was all about. I didn’t know you could find top quality coins(uncirculated) on this site. Since then I buy all my coins on eBay with out hesitation.

  • A nice collectible of history

    The 1964 John F Kennedy half dollar is the only half dollar that is 90 percent silver. From 1965 to 1970 they made the John F Kennedy half dollars 40 percent silver but after 1970 they had no silver whatsoever. So, if you own a 1964 John F Kennedy half dollars, you have a collectible piece of history. The 1964- 1970 Kennedy half dollars are worth collecting because they are the only Kennedy silver half dollars, and the 1964 Kennedy half dollar is the only one that is 90 percent silver. For that reason alone, it's worth collecting.
