The Kennedy half dollar is a very popular collectible coin that has sentimental value for many Americans as well as numismatic value for coin collectors. It was first minted in 1964 as a memorial to the 35th President of the United States John F. Kennedy after his assassination in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963.
Kennedy half dollars have been struck since 1964 but experienced only a brief time circulating in large numbers. Strong public sentiment for the Kennedy half dollar ensured that virtually all Kennedy half dollars were snapped up after arriving at banks around the United States. In the years that followed, continued hoarding of Kennedy half dollars further kept this coin off the streets.
Now you can enjoy a new shiny bigger-than-life replica of this iconic coin covered in a 24-karat gold layer
