i would stick to 2008 and 2009. i think 2009 will be few also. but maybe a little bit more than 2008. i am sure it is better than sac and prez dollars.

check the kennedy clad proof and silver proof. those prices were really kill us. i don't have any single pieces. except i got some clad proof set and silver proof set. which contained kennedy half.

Which means that there are less than a million business strikes of each and less than a million satin finish strikes of each. (Mint sets was less than a million but over 800,000.)

kennedy half dollars from year 2002 to current. in the future, these half dollar collector's coins might be one of the hottest u.s. coins.

Danr

How do you know the total 2009 mintage? I think that they are still making them.

I'm just glad they keep making them. I've always been partial to half dollars, no matter which design. Many complain that the mint keeps producing these, but they are not making billions of them at a loss...and people are buying them.

elaine 1970

that's true. i agree with you.

elaine 1970

so far the mintage for 2008 and 2009 kennedy half dollar were exactly the same. 1,700,000 pc only.
