    While going through some old coins my grandfather had saved, we discovered a Kennedy half that did not have a head. Only two tales. Can anyone fill me in on these? Are they rare? How would we find out the year it was minted? The value? Any information would be greatly appreciated as coin collecting is new to us. Thanks!

    Howdy Bonnie -

    Yours is one of the most often asked questions by family members going through a loved one's collection. But I'm sorry to tell you that what you have is a magician's coin. They are made by various novelty companies and sold for a few dollars :(
