The Kennedy US Half Dollar Silver Coin (1965) is a historic circulation coin, produced by the US Mint and issued during the transition period in American coinage when silver content was reduced. This piece holds both numismatic and historical significance.
Containing 11.34 grams total weight with approximately 4.54 grams of pure silver, the coin is composed of 40% silver and 60% copper, marking a shift away from higher silver purity used in earlier issues.
The obverse features a detailed portrait of President John F. Kennedy, created to honour his legacy, while the reverse displays the iconic Presidential Seal with an eagle holding an olive branch and arrows, symbolising strength and peace.
As the first year of reduced silver composition in the Kennedy Half Dollar series, the 1965 issue carries added importance for collectors. Its historical context, combined with its silver content, makes it a sought-after piece among numismatists.
This coin offers a blend of collectible value and historical relevance, making it a meaningful addition to any collection of US coinage.

Fit notes
- Warm hands measure slightly larger; measure at the end of the day.
- Wider bands feel tighter—consider half size up for bands ≥6 mm.
- Knuckle vs. base: choose a size that passes the knuckle but fits snug at the base.
For eternity/comfort-fit bands, professional sizing is recommended.
