This Kennedy Half Dollar, issued between 1965 and 1970, represents the "silver-clad" era of American coinage. Following the Coinage Act of 1965, the United States transitioned most denominations to base metal, but the Kennedy Half Dollar retained a significant 40% silver composition for several years. These coins feature a core of 21% silver bonded to outer layers of 80% silver, providing a brilliant lustre and a distinctive "silver ring" that differentiates them from later copper-nickel issues.
