<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 24818523, member: 100459"]I'm sure that a Proof 1964 Kennedy Half Dollar is worth a lot of collectors. I purchased the 2015 Kennedy Half Dollar Collection in 2015 from the Mint. They are still in the Mint collection dry. I also got the 2015 Jacqueline Kennedy Gold Half Dollar. I'm also looking for the Gold Kennedy Half for my collection. I was in the eleventh grade history class when it was told over the speakers in the classrooms. School was out until the body of President John F. Kennedy was laid to rest in Arlington National Cemetary. </p><p>In 1969, I was in the 82nd Airborne Division stationed at Fort Bragg (oops! Fort Liberty). A large rally was supposed to demonstrate on the streets of Washington D.C. The rally turned out to be a bust, so we were released to our cots until C-130s could return to D.C. to take us home. A buddy of mine went with me to Arlington to see Kennedy's grave. We were stopped by an Army guard. We were asked what we were doing there. We told them we had been sent to protect the monuments, but due to the poor showing of the March, we were released.
