The first ever silver coin of the United States commemorating John F Kennedy

John F Kennedy was the most popular president of the United States.  His assassination in 1963 deeply saddened American society and the whole world. In 1964 a legal tender half dollar coin was struck by the United States to commemorate his short presidency.

This half dollar silver coin is a precious original more than 50 years old, it was struck for circulation for only one year. From the moment it was issued in 1964, it was hoarded by collectors not just because of its 90% silver content but also as a tribute to JFK. As the first and only circulating silver coin commemorating John F. Kennedy it has become one of the most collected silver dollar coins all over the world.
