Description
The 1964 (D) Kennedy Half Dollar is a half dollar produced at the Denver Mint as part of the Kennedy Half Dollars Silver 1964 to Date series. Total mintage reached 156.2 million. The obverse features John F. Kennedy facing left, based on the presidential medal by Gilroy Roberts, while the reverse displays the Presidential Seal — a heraldic eagle with shield, olive branch, and arrows. Designed by Roberts/Frank Gasparro. Struck in 90% silver, 10% copper, weighing 12.5 grams, 31 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #6707. The Kennedy Half Dollar was rushed into production in early 1964, just weeks after President Kennedy's assassination. The 1964 issues are collected for both historical significance and silver content. The 1964 Accented Hair variety and various proof finishes are notable. The silver-clad 1965-1970 issues contain 40% silver.
