The Kennedy Half Dollar was issued months after the American President was assasinated and became extremely popular worldwide as a result. As stated, it is 90% silver so at today's silver price, its "Melt Value" is just slightly over $6.66. It is a very nice coin, still being minted through this year and the forseeable future. However, since 2002, these have not been released for circulation, and only produced for collectors.

In 1964 it was 90% silver. 1965 through 1970 it was 40% silver. From 1971 to present it is copper/nickel mix.

This coin is definitely a keeper for you!
