About this Product
 
The Beginning of a New Era...in MS66: The Original Silver Kennedy Half Dollar!

Since 1964, the Silver Kennedy Half Dollar has been one of America's favorite coins, with a history of production well over 50 years long and still going strong! Since 1964 Philadelphia and Denver issues have been made each year for circulation, alongside a special collector’s edition proof that has been released by the San Francisco Mint ... but very few people are aware of the KEY pieces to the series - the first year of issue 90% Silver Kennedy half Dollars!

We recently came into a small group of these First Year Silver Half Dollars while at a coin show and their quality was something truly special to behold. After taking a closer look at these beautiful silver coins we decided to send them out to be graded by the experts over at PCGS, and what they found was astonishing... More than half of these Silver 1964-P Kennedy Half Dollars were in stunning MS66 condition! Talk About a Rare Find!

The First, and Last, 90% Silver Circulating Kennedy Half Dollar!

Kennedy Half Dollar was commissioned to Honor one of our most iconic Presidents: John F. Kennedy. This first year Kennedy Half Dollar was minted at the Philadelphia and Denver Mints in both Proof and Uncirculated condition. Due to these coins being issued for circulation, very few have survived today in collector’s quality condition thanks to their constant use over the last 50+ years. Don’t believe us? Just take a look at the numbers for the Philadelphia Mint issues!

In 1964 the United States Mint at Philadelphia produced over 273,304,004 total Silver Kennedy Half Dollars, but of that number less than 0.05% are known to exist today.
